Editor' s note: There is no doubt that cholesterol is important. But it should be noted that humans do not need exogenous cholesterol (cholesterol that comes from animal based foods) because they can make cholesterol on their own. In other words, cholesterol is not an essential vitamin that people must have from dietary sources or supplements. Also too much cholesterol in the blood boosts the production of excess hormones. With excess hormones, children become adults at an earlier age now than ever and adults are more likely to suffer health conditions. That is why people on a plant-based diet tend to have fewer diseases and those eating animal-based tend to suffer all types of Western diseases.
