Pine Tree Plant Sterols 2,000 mg of Plant Sterols • 1,400 mg of Beta-Sitosterol • 30 Sachets
Looking for a simple way to add plant sterols to your routine, often sought by those with high cholesterol? These pine-derived plant sterols offer a water dispersion of sterols in convenient sachets – 1 sachet daily, easily mixed into yoghurt, smoothies, or porridge.
How it works: plant sterols are structurally similar to cholesterol and compete with it for absorption in the intestine. Therefore, they are taken with meals and the dose is assessed as part of the overall diet. In one daily serving, you get 2,000 mg of plant sterols (including 1,400 mg of beta-sitosterol).
Why we included CardioSmile in the PraveBio.cz range
CardioSmile is a brand by Nutrartis, which has long focused on developing nutritional solutions for cardiometabolic health. The brand is based on a straightforward principle: to offer substances that people address in relation to cholesterol, in a form that can realistically be maintained in everyday life – without complex protocols and without the need to change the diet to a “special regime”.
In the Canadian market, CardioSmile is distributed and marketed by the pharmaceutical company Mantra Pharma from Quebec, which has been operating since 2006 in the field of medicines, vitamins, and over-the-counter supplements, supplying its brands to pharmacies across Quebec and Canada. For you, this means traceable background, clear product responsibility, and also the ability to rely on the standards of an environment where proper use and compliance with regulations are addressed.
Plant Sterols from Pine in Liquid Sachets - Cardiosmile
Plant sterols are often sought after by people addressing cholesterol and who want to manage their daily intake with one simple step. Here, you get sterols as a water dispersion, so you can add them to food without complex preparation.
Each serving contains 2000 mg of plant sterols (including 1400 mg of beta-sitosterol). The portion is prepared in a sachet, so you maintain the same daily dose without scoops and calculations.
It's suited to everyday use: in yoghurt, smoothies, drinks, or oatmeal (ideally cold or lukewarm). If you add the mixture to something warm, fine clumps may form; however, the amount of sterols per serving remains unchanged.
CardioSmile is for adults who want to incorporate sterols with meals and have a daily dose in one serving. Always consider other sources of sterols in your diet and adhere to the recommended daily intake.
Did you know?
Plant sterols have a structure similar to cholesterol and "compete" with it for absorption in the digestive tract. Therefore, it is usually recommended to take them with meals, as part of the overall diet.
Scientific literature often works with a range of approximately 1.5–3 g of sterols daily (from all sources). CardioSmile provides 2 g per serving.

CardioSmile makes it easy to add plant sterols (phytosterols) to your everyday diet – without turning it into a whole new routine. The idea comes from years of development of a format that lets you add sterols directly to food, rather than relying on specially “fortified” products.
Each sachet provides 2,000 mg of phytosterols in water. It has a neutral taste and aroma and doesn’t need refrigeration, so it’s simple to use at home or when you’re out and about. The brand also highlights a “free from” profile (no sugar, fat, sodium, calories, gluten or lactose), which makes CardioSmile easy to slot into different ways of eating.
We brought CardioSmile to PravéBio because it solves a familiar issue when you’re trying to manage cholesterol: the plan is often fine, but the execution isn’t. Here, the daily dose is clear, the step takes seconds, and the product is upfront about what it’s for – without dressing it up in empty promises.
Known for:
- A unique “sterols in water” format – instead of special foods, you simply add the sachet to everyday meals or a cold drink.
- A clear daily dose, no maths – each sachet delivers 2,000 mg of plant sterols, so it’s straightforward and easy to keep up long term.
- Made for real life – a neutral taste and aroma and no need for refrigeration make it convenient at home and while travelling.
- A clean “free from” profile – the brand states the product contains no sugar, fat, sodium, calories, gluten or lactose, so it fits well into a range of eating patterns.
Who’s behind the Cardiosmile brand
CardioSmile comes from the Chilean company Nutrartis, which develops nutraceuticals for cardiovascular health. The company says it draws on more than 10 years of research and development, and positions CardioSmile as an innovative, patented plant-sterol solution – with an emphasis on scientific backing, quality, and practical day-to-day use.
The way the brand communicates reflects a strong focus on transparency and integrity, and on making the product easy to understand and genuinely sustainable as part of a normal routine. The science is also linked to specific people: the brand mentions specialist Gonzalo Vega as the creator of the CardioSmile approach. Overall, it leans into a “do it differently” mindset – innovate, validate, and turn research into a simple format that works in practice.
The Cardiosmile mission
CardioSmile’s mission is to make it genuinely doable to include plant sterols (phytosterols) in your daily diet – even with a normal schedule. That’s why the brand offers phytosterols in a form you can add to food in a way that suits your habits, without needing “extra” fat-based products, which are often part of other phytosterol options.
CardioSmile is built around a clearly defined daily dose. The brand links regular use with the goal of supporting cholesterol reduction, and mentions a timeframe of visible results after around 28 days. The point is to turn “the theory” into an easy habit – one simple step a day, with no complicated prep.
CardioSmile: the brand’s technology and approach
Rather than offering a broad range of products, CardioSmile focuses on one clear solution: how to add plant sterols (phytosterols) to everyday meals in a way you can keep up long term. The brand describes the technology as patented and clinically tested.
The key is the format itself. CardioSmile uses “free phytosterols” and a patented process that disperses them in water by reducing particle size. The result is a fine, neutral liquid formula you can add to food or a cold drink.
In practice, it’s all about simple dosing and a straightforward formula (pine-derived sterols, with an emphasis on a non-GMO source).
How CardioSmile fits into everyday life
CardioSmile is a practical way to include plant sterols (phytosterols) in your daily diet, without a complicated routine.
Why do people look for this? When you’re working on cholesterol, the main hurdle is often practicality: it’s hard to stay consistent if it depends on special foods or awkward dosing. CardioSmile keeps it to one clear step – 1 sachet a day – without needing to overhaul your diet or juggle complex combinations.
Plant sterols are known for helping to lower blood cholesterol; raised cholesterol is also one of the risk factors for heart and blood vessel disease. CardioSmile makes sense for anyone who wants a simple way to use sterols regularly, and is looking for something that’s sustainable long term – workable in everyday life, not just in theory.
CardioSmile focuses on a practical way to supplement plant sterols as part of managing cholesterol. One sachet delivers 2,000 mg of phytosterols and slips easily into your daily routine.
