Quick answer to common questions~ Q: What is cholesterol? A: CHOLESTEROL is made by the body (blood cholesterol), and also comes from foods, such as eggs, high-fat dairy products, organ meats and shellfish (dietary cholesterol). These foods also contain saturated fats. A high intake of dietary cholesterol can raise cholesterol levels in the blood. Foods containing cholesterol should be eaten in moderation, but more emphasis should be placed on reducing saturated fat and trans fat.
