A.Cholesterol in food is found only in animal foods (such as offal, fatty meats,full fat dairy products and egg yolks). Plant foods such as avocados, nuts,grains, fruit and vegetables don�t have any cholesterol. Cholesterol in food canraise your blood cholesterol level, particularly in people at high risk of developing heart disease. However, cholesterol in food does not raise cholesterol in the blood to the same extent as saturated fat. Replacing saturated fats with polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats is the most effective way to help lower your blood cholesterol level
