A person with high cholesterol has excessive fats
(lipids) in the blood. Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance present
in all parts of the body including the nervous system, skin, muscle,
liver, intestines, and heart. It is both made by the body and
obtained from animal products in the diet.
Cholesterol is manufactured in the liver for normal
body functions including the production of hormones, bile acid,
and Vitamin D. It is transported in the blood to be used by all
parts of the body.
Dietary cholesterol is present only in foods of
animal origin (not in foods of plant origin) like eggs, dairy
products, meat, poultry, fish, and shellfish. Egg yolks and organ
meats (liver, kidney, sweetbread, and brain) are high in dietary
cholesterol. Fish generally contains less cholesterol than other
meats, but some shellfish is high in cholesterol.
Foods of plant origin (vegetables, fruits, grains,
cereals, nuts, and seeds) contain no cholesterol. Fat content
is not a good measurement of cholesterol content. For example,
liver and other organ meats are low in fat but very high in cholesterol.
