Benecol has introduced a new plain yoghurt option. The company has announced that the Low Fat Bio Live Plain Yogurt will be available in 500g tubs; it is the first product on the market that actively helps lower cholesterol, the company claims. Nutritionist Helen Bond commented that consuming the product can help prevent cholesterol absorption. The company has suggested that the product can be used as an alternative for cream or milk in cooking as well as a healthier alternative when making curries or cheesecakes.

Benecol is the only range of products to contain Plant Stanol Ester.
