Benecol launches new One-a-Day Yogurts

16/01/06 Benecol, the pioneer of cholesterol-lowering foods, has launched new One-a-Day Yogurts, offering consumers yet another tasty and easy way to lower cholesterol.

Available in Peach and Strawberry flavour twin-packs, the One-A-Day Yogurts are the latest addition to the Benecol range, which already offers a wide selection of delicious tasting ways to lower cholesterol. Benecol contains the unique ingredient Plant Stanol Ester which is clinically proven to reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol by up to 14% in as little as two to three weeks. Previously, only the Benecol Yogurt Drinks contained an optimum 2g of plant stanols in each serving.

Managing cholesterol is a vital part of looking after the heart. Total blood cholesterol levels in the UK are high by international standards, particularly in women. In the UK two out of three adults have raised cholesterol, but only a few of them are actually aware of it. As part of a healthy diet and lifestyle, eating just one new Benecol Yogurt a day with a main meal is enough to lower cholesterol to help maintain a healthy heart.
