What about cholesterol-lowering margarine?

Considering using the cholesterol-lowering margarines and other spreads you see in your grocery store's dairy section? While they may not hurt you, they probably will not help if you do not have high cholesterol already. Cholesterol-lowering margarines or butter spreads are designed for people who need to reduce their cholesterol levels. If you use cholesterol-lowering spreads, use them as directed and most importantly, follow a healthy lifestyle, including a diet that's low in saturated fat and cholesterol.
