Your diet should be tailormade by consulting with your doctor - most of your cholesterol (80%) is produced by the liver, the rest comes through diet - the problem is when your body can't get the balance right. Most people do this through diet - but obviously the range is limited. Some people have a disease that prevents them from regulating natural levels of cholesterol.
There is “good” and “bad” cholesterol – the one you don’t want is the one that clogs up your arteries
Fixating on one food is just ridiculous. As it tries to imply that that food is “safer” because of others foods producing cholesterol – a false logic if ever there was.
Eggs are high cholesterol, but low in saturated fat, so is lobster, prawns and squid - and there's a lot of prawn and squid in a Thai diet. Farmed prawns are also dreadful for the environment. Offal is low in saturated fat too.
Cholesterol is only found in foods that come from animals, there is no cholesterol in foods that come from plants. So, there is no cholesterol in fruit, vegetables, grains, seeds, nuts, beans, peas and lentils.
The worst foods for high cholesterol, given their high saturated fat content, include: Red meat, like beef, pork, and lamb, as well as processed meats like sausage. Full-fat dairy, like cream, whole milk, and butter. Baked goods and sweets – - fried foods, and baked goods are notorious for raising levels
- i.e – a typical overweight expat’s diet.
