Is a Cholesterol Free Diet even possible in our Junk Food filled World

Is a cholesterol free diet even possible?  Maybe, maybe not but
more importantly is it safe for you to have a completely
cholesterol free diet?  I mean with all of the important
functions cholesterol performs in your body like:

1.  Hormone production (estrogen and testosterone)
2.  Helps to provide cell wall strength
3.  Helps with digestion (bile acid production)
4.  Provides insulation for nerves
5.  Aids Vitamin D production
6.  Helps repair cell membranes

Do you really want to go without those functions taking place in
your body?

If you do a search on the web you’ll find hundreds of searches
monthly for cholesterol free diet.  People all over the world are
looking for the ultimate low to no cholesterol diet plan. 

But again is a cholesterol free diet what you desire or really
want?  Or is it the decreased heart attack risk and benefits
being healthier can provide?  Maybe, maybe not only you really
know the answer to that question.

Remember your body produces cholesterol in your liver so that the
various functions listed can occur.  The issue for most people is
that they add too much additional cholesterol into their body
from the foods they consume.

Now because the amount of cholesterol your body needs varies from
day to day and over time, what seems like a normal or healthy
amount of cholesterol today.  May be too much the next day after
that burger and fries pushed you over the levels your body needs.

Eat too much fat and cholesterol filled foods and the excess
enters your blood stream and begins to clog up your arteries.
Which you already know about at this point but, here is the
thing.  How do you know your blood cholesterol is high on Tuesday
but not on Wednesday?  Do you carry a portable test kit with you? 

How do you know how much cholesterol is in that sandwich and
chips without testing it?  You don’t know and besides who wants
to spend all of their time doing cholesterol food analysis?  No
you want to eat and move on.

So that brings me back to my question, is there such a thing as a
cholesterol free diet?  Maybe there is but, wouldn’t it be more
enjoyable to add low cholesterol foods to your diet?  You know
try adding foods like fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish
etc. to your meals and snacks, instead of searching the globe for
zero cholesterol foods all the time.

I’m not saying not to seek out low cholesterol foods because the
more you consume the better.  But do not let cholesterol free
diets consume your diet choices live a little eat a low cholesterol
pork chop, chicken dish or have a slice of banana nut
bread.
