What is Cholesterol?Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in our blood and in body cells. We actually need cholesterol and use it to make some hormones and vitamin D. Cholesterol is found only in animal products like meats, organ meats (i.e. liver), eggs, milk, butter, and shellfish. If you eat excessive amounts of these foods, your body may make too much cholesterol. Too much cholesterol in the blood may increase your risk of developing heart disease. The Dietary Guidelines suggest we limit cholesterol in the diet. Some health professionals recommend eating no more than 300 mg/day of cholesterol. Food Item Cholesterol
