For consumers looking to watch their cholesterol, Logicol can help get it down and keep it down.
The Logicol brand produces food products enriched with plant sterols, an ingredient that can help lower cholesterol absorption.
Plant sterols are a natural substance found in everyday foods such as vegetables, legumes, fruit and nuts, but concentrations are quite low.
In Logicol products, the level of plant sterols is enough to help lower cholesterol absorption from the gut. For example, with a balanced diet and exercise, eating 25 grams of Logicol spread daily over three weeks can lower cholesterol absorption by 10 per cent.
Ideal on bread or used in cooking, Logicol spreads retail in Australia and New Zealand through major supermarkets and independent grocery stores.
Logicol yoghurts are also available in Australia.
