Description
Plant stanols are found naturally in vegetables, fruits and cereal grains, but a person would need to eat a full 12 pounds of broccoli, 29 pounds of carrots, or 60 pounds of tomatoes every day to get the recommended amount – 2 grams per day.* So, we put them into our delicious Benecol Soft Chews in order to provide a tasty, easy way to add plant stanols to your daily diet.
*Foods containing at least 0.5g per serving of plant stanols eaten with meals or snacks for a daily total intake of 2g as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. – Food & Drug Administration statement
