Busy Woman’s Guide to Cheerios and Cholesterol

Eating Cheerios can reduce your cholesterol by 10% in a month

Here’s some good news! Eating a cereal you loved as a kid, can help you be more healthy as an adult! Recent clinical studies indicate “eating two 1 1/2 cup servings of Cheerios daily, as part of a reduced calorie diet low in fat, lowered LDL or “bad” cholesterol about 10 percent in one month. Cheerios is the only leading ready-to-eat cereal clinically proven to lower cholesterol.”

So, go ahead, eat some cheerios! In fact, buying a box of Cheerios can help women who cannot afford to have cholesterol testing. For each box of Cheerios purchased, the company will donate $1 to screen uninsured and underserved women. Simply enter the code on the box at the Cheerios Circle of Helping Hearts website.

Great breakfast – great cause!
