It's all about establishing a new routine

Talking Benecol®

When you start using Benecol®, it's important to get into the habit of taking it daily. Benecol® helps to reduce your cholesterol because it contains naturally occurring plant stanol esters - and you need to make sure you get enough of this active ingredient.

In fact, studies have shown that if you eat the right amount of Benecol® every day as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle you can actually reduce your bad LDL cholesterol by up to 14%1. It's easy, all you need to do is start enjoying Benecol® on a daily basis.
Of course, variety is the spice of life. Fortunately, there are lots of different ways for you to get the same great Benecol® benefits by mixing and matching our range.
The Benecol® Range
You can get the right daily amount by treating yourself to 2-3 servings of our Light, Buttery Taste or Olive Spreads (1 serving = 2 ½ teaspoons) or our Cream Cheese Style Spread (1 serving = 4 teaspoons). Or you could opt for some of our fruity Low Fat Bio Yogurts.
You can also try mixing and matching the Benecol® range. For example, why not enjoy one of our tasty spreads on your toast for breakfast and then a cream cheese bagel and a yogurt as a light lunch option? You'll find there are many delicious ways to enjoy the daily recommended 2-3 servings.
Alternatively, you could go for a Benecol® Yogurt Drink or Dairy Free Drink - just one bottle a day is all you need.
Whether you go for a mixture of choices or stick to one product, keeping up the habit is crucial - because when you stop taking Benecol®, your cholesterol will return to its previous level. Good luck with your routine!
