Not bad for adults: Most people get enough (and too much) fat and cholesterol in their diet. Cholesterol is a vital component for many hormones and structural components for cells. It is the state of too much cholesterol or elevation of the wrong subtypes of cholesterol which can cause deposition into the blood vessel walls (atherosclerosis).
