It has long been believed that a high cholesterol level is not good and those whose numbers were high were advised to stay away from high cholesterol foods like eggs and shrimps.
However, there is new research on cholesterol that shows that dietary cholesterol has little or no effect on blood cholesterol levels. But if your cholesterol level is high your doctor will still recommend that you watch what you eat. Confused? I'm sure, you are used to getting conflicting information on nutrition.
The good news is that once your diet improves overall, your cholesterol level will also be lowered.
