How much Benecol do I have to eat to get the right daily amount of plant stanols?

How to get the recommended daily intake of 1.5 – 3.0g of plant stanols to lower your cholesterol from 7 to 12.5% is completely up to you.

For example, you could enjoy a Benecol yogurt drink providing 2g with your morning bowl of porridge and a serving of Benecol buttery taste spread, which provides 0.7g on your lunchtime baked potato. Or why not spread Benecol light lavishly on your breakfast toast, supplying 0.7g or and have a Benecol yogurt as a healthy evening pudding, which supplies 2g. The Benecol bars providing 1.6g of plant stanols are also great for easy cholesterol lowering on the go, or whenever you feel like a tasty wholegrain snack.

So just mix and match and choose from any of the following Benecol options to get recommended daily intake of 1.5 to 3.0g of plant stanols:

• One Benecol yogurt drink (67.5g-70g) provides 2.0g of plant stanols
• One Benecol soya drink (65.5g) provides 2.0g of plant stanols
• One pot of Benecol yogurt (120g) provides 2.0g of plant stanols
• Two teaspoons of Benecol spread (10g) provides 0.7g of plant stanols
• One Benecol bar (40g) provides 1.6g plant stanols
