Can I use Benecol products without a physician’s recommendation?

Yes, you can freely use Benecol products with added plant plant stanol ester to help lower your cholesterol levels and boost the effects of your healthy heart diet, low in saturated fat and including your ‘5-a-day’. It is up to your own discretion if you want to consult your doctor.

However, if you’re taking cholesterol-lowering medication, like statins, it’s recommended that you check with your doctor first about using Benecol products with added plant stanols.
