A member asked:
Please tell how much cholesterol should the average person allow in their diet a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lipids: 300mg a day would be a good limit but i wouldn't drive myself crazy over it, i recommend trying to cut fat consumption back as much as you can tolerate, if not enough to reach goal, we can add meds.
