Kraft liveactive How much to eat?


To help manage your cholesterol levels, the National Heart Foundation recommends 2-3g of plant sterols or 2 to 3 serves of plant sterol enriched products each day as part of a healthy diet.^
Each serve of KRAFT liveactive cheese provides 1g of plant sterols. With the convenient portion format of KRAFT liveactive cheese, you know the exact amount of plant sterols you're getting in each cheese slice or a mini-tub of cream cheese, making it very easy to know when you have consumed the recommended amount of plant sterols.
Have 2 slices of KRAFT liveactive light cheese slices or 1 mini-tub of KRAFT liveactive light cream cheese everyday for up to 10% cholesterol reduction in 3 weeks.*
But remember, don't stop after just 3 weeks! Ongoing consumption is important to help ensure the reduced cholesterol level is maintained.

*Individual results are influenced by many factors including age, current blood cholesterol levels and metabolism. While it is important to get enough plant sterols for optimal reduction, consuming more than 3g of plant sterols a day provides no extra benefit
