Helping people live more of life for over 30 years
Over the last three decades, Benecol has been supporting people in managing their cholesterol as part of a healthy lifestyle. With active plant stanols proven to lower cholesterol, Benecol offers a simple and effective way to take care of your heart health without disrupting your daily routine.
Where it all started
It started with Finnish scientist Ingmar Wester and a simple idea: plant stanols could help lower cholesterol. After years of research, he developed plant stanol ester, bringing this unique ingredient into everyday foods without compromising on the taste we love.
