[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1938762, member: 408573"] One of the first things I learned about cholesterol is that dietary cholesterol accounts for, at most, 15% of total serum cholesterol. If you could take every scrap of cholesterol from your diet, pretty nigh on impossible especially in view of the fact that plants have sterols too, your body just makes up the shortfall. I sometimes think of it this way, just as 'the fat you eat is the fat you wear' adage is utter codswallop simply because fats are eaten, digested and metabolised then the cholesterol in our diet should be thought of in roughly the same way. And besides, egg whites are dead boring, what do you dunk your mushrooms in if there is no yolk? [/QUOTE]
