If you like your cholesterol, you can keep it.

The US decided to drop warnings about diet cholesterol.   Here's the short version:
"The body creates cholesterol in amounts much larger than ... diet provides,  ..The body regulates how much is in the blood and ... there is both “good” and “bad” cholesterol"
Too much cholesterol (the wrong kind) delivered to the wrong places (after being made and deployed in your own body) endangers your health.   For years you've been badgered by know-it-alls trying out the Beta version of their advice through lawfare and classroom indoctrination.  Don`t pooh pooh expert advice.  Just stay cautious.   The same story is being played out with salt in your diet. (`How the recommended low levels of salt in your diet might actually be dangerous.``)
