Make the switch today

Too much cholesterol isn’t good for you – but it isn’t too late to get ahead of it. Make the switch to Benecol today and take control of your cholesterol levels

Worried about your cholesterol? You’re not alone. More than half of adults in the UK have raised cholesterol, according to Heart UK*. If left unchecked, LDL cholesterol, the bad cholesterol, can increase your chances of future health problems such as coronary heart disease.

Thankfully it’s a risk you can control and there are plenty of ways to do so. For instance, if you love getting your hands dirty in the garden or prefer a run in the park, rigorous exercise can be a great way to keep your heart healthy. And you should try cutting down on foods high in saturated fat, too. But there’s another small change that could make a big difference…

One smart switch

Making a swap to Benecol is an easy and convenient way to reduce your cholesterol. That’s because its delicious range of products contain plant stanol ester, a nifty ingredient that’s been proven to lower cholesterol – and keep it low – when enjoyed daily†.

Benecol has cracked the secret to creating foods and drinks that help lower your cholesterol. And healthy certainly doesn’t mean flavourfree either. Why not give them a go and see for yourself? Switch your afternoon snack for a thick and fruity Benecol yogurt or take a sip of a Benecol yogurt drink, packed with vitamin

B1. Not only are they bursting with flavour, but enjoying one or two a day is proven to lower your cholesterol in just two to three weeks!

You could also swap your usual butter for a delicious Benecol spread. Perfect for melting on top of vegetables or spreading lavishly on bread, these spreads have a wonderful creamy taste and will help reduce your cholesterol, too. Or, if you’re in a hurry, simply pop a Benecol fruit bar in your bag for a healthy treat on the go. Delightfully fruity or packed with nuts, just one of these bars a day can help lower your cholesterol, wherever you are. Plus, they’re also high in fibre! It’s a simple change but your heart, and taste buds, will thank you later.
