Summary: a winner
Comment: I have seen a drop in my total cholesterol and LDL-not dramatic, but enough that I don't need to go on cholesterol-lowering medication .
Customer Rating:
Summary: Something is working!
Comment: I have been using Benecol chews for several months now. I am one of those who absolutely cannot take statins to lower my cholesterol. The statins will lower my cholesterol...but they cause a lot of other problems. I do not know if the Benecol alone would lower my cholesterol because I am on Niaspan also, but my total cholesterol is down, my HDL is up, my LDL is down as well as my triglycerides. The number and size of my LDL particles has also decreased greatly. Research has now determined the more particles you have, the more likely they are to stick together and therefore cause blockages. Give Benecol a try. I will continue to use them. I also use Benecol spread that can be found at most grocery stores. Good luck!

Summary: Great taste and simple to use
Comment: I just received my first order of the Benecol smart chews and they tast great. A nice smooth caramel texture that melts in your mouth.
OK, so compared to most of the other posts, my cholesterol levels are not too high but my doctor says it's high. One of my biggest problems is keeping my HDL (good) greater than 40. So when I read the Benecol website and it said this would help lower my LDL (Bad) and not my HDL I thought why not try them out. I already eat well balanced meals and walk 5 times a week for 30 minutes. In addition, prior to my most recent blood test I was able to loose 15lbs. Now at 5'2" I weight my ideal weight of 110lbs. Yet my cholesterol levels have not gone down.
My last test was on 10/28/08
TOTAL CHOLESTEROL = 214 goal less than 200
HDL CHOLESTEROL = 40 goal greater than 40
LDL CHOLESTEROL = 145 goal less than 130
TRIGLYCERIDES = 146 goal less than 150
My next test will not be until April so I plan on adding all bran to my breakfast and taking 3 Benecol chews a day. I will update you with my results in April 2009. If they do manage to reduce my numbers I will be more than willing to give this product 5 stars.

Summary: BENECOL CHEWS REVIEW
Comment: The product was deliveried on time. I have not had a Cholestrol test to see if the product did in fact perform as advertised but I will be doing that within the next 2 months. The product is very good and easy to take.

Summary: My cholesterol is down.
Comment: I have been eating 2 benecol chews daily for about 8 months. My cholesterol has dropped to 180. I must say that I am also on a cholesterol lowering medication, but I think the chews helped a bit. Also, I like the taste. They can be a little waxy , but I don't get to eat much candy these days.
