    The amount of cholesterol you have in your bloodstream has almost nothing to do with how much cholesterol is in the food you eat. This has been known for a long time. It's too bad our 'experts' seem to be unaware of that.

However studies show that LDL cholesteral is produced more from eating bad fats such as saturated and trans so stay away from those and eat healthy fats such as olive oil, avocados, nuts Etc..
