Answer by Jus{hug}Me
We need Cholesterol for normal life health, but some people process cholesterol better through the system than others, so recommended for each person is different and all meats have cholesterol, just a matter of what meats you eat and how it is processed…I would have blood tests done too get a bottom line reading…your blood cholesterol, should be at 130 or below, but today they recommend 100 or below..but some people are very healthy at 200 or higher…lack of cholesterol can cause a heart attack…Iron would be the thing too watch, you need blood iron, but remember that blood iron is real iron and it rusts, which we call vascular calcification..(rusting of the blood vessels)…very few doctors will tell you this, so ask..most are busy selling Lipitor or Crestor or whatever, (which may be necessary), but proper diet and exercise is the key too low Cholesterol. My mother weighed 106 pounds and was healthy up too her death, (we are all going to die) and her cholesterol was over 300.
