I've been using Benecol spreads for a few years know and don't really miss real butter. I'm convinced that using such spreads is beneficial to my health. But they are very costly so could my perception be all in the mind?
Are foodstuffs that contain 'plant stenol esters' really good for you? The problem that I can foresee is that products like Benecol have to be taken like medicine: four servings a day. I tend to have toast only every other day so i'm probably not gaining any benefit from the plant stenol esters.
