A little goes a long way: every one of these delicious Light yogurt drinks contains your daily dose of unique plant stanols shown to lower cholesterol by 7-10% in just 2-3 weeks; and all with less sugar and calories than Benecol Original yogurt drink. Plant stanol ester has been shown to lower cholesterol. High cholesterol is a risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease. A daily intake of 1.5-2.4g plant stanols lowers cholesterol by 7-10% in 2-3 weeks. Each bottle contains 2.0g so that's why one bottle a day gives the effect when consumed with a main meal and as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle, including your '5 a day'. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 1.5-3g plant stanols. 30% lower in sugar and calories than Benecol Original yogurt drink.
