Cholesterol Laden Foods

May 23, 2009 by  

There are many foods that you need to be aware of that are laden with cholesterol. It is important that you are aware of the many types of foods for the sake of your family’s health.

A List of Cholesterol Laden Foods

Interesting enough, a sheep or beef brain is on the top of the list for the most cholesterol in foods. Makes you wanna run out and buy a couple, eh? Well, rest assured I won’t be anytime soon!! That is for sure.

Next on the list is fish oil. While there are many good attributes for it, there are also precautions that you must know about. Fish oil has a lot of cholesterol.

Chicken liver anyone? – Well, coming in as number three on the list is tasty chicken liver. I think that I will pass on this one as well. I am sure that many of us will.

Raw eggs (especially the yolk) – I am sure that there are many people out there who love the incredible edible egg, right? Yeah, I do but it doesn’t like us so we need to eat them in moderation.

Beef bi-products – Liver or tongues anyone? Nah, I didn’t think so. There are many people who like to fry up a batch now and again. If the grease isn’t bad enough, then eat some bi-products to add more to your already high cholesterol.

Canned crustaceans? – Uhm you mean as in shrimp and fish? I don’t think so. There are many that you think in your mind are very good for you. So since they are ‘good’ for you, you decide to go ahead and fry them; making them better? I sincerely doubt it. They are still high in cholesterol.

Fast foods – Well, this is definitely a no-brainer (to say the least). Uhm, maybe or maybe not, who knows. Maybe you didn’t know that those morning biscuits and sausage were loaded with all the fattening grease? Perhaps you don’t think about it while driving down the road on your way to work? Who knows, but now you do.

Pork anyone? – Did you know that pork is high in fat and cholesterol already. They are some of the nastiest animals and eat just about anything. They are full of cholesterol and sadly enough, many people fry them in grease.

There are many types of food that are loaded with cholesterol. We can choose to be knowledgeable in what we do or we can continue feeding our bodies junk. The choice is yours!

    I would also like to know about fish oil. I have ulcerative colitis. Along with the regular meds, the doctor suggest fish oil and probiotics.

    Looking on the web many point to a study where the dosage was 18 fish oil pills per day for 4 months. Luckily the doc says try 3 – 4 per day.

    Probiotics There are different products that have different dosages and different species. I dont see specific recommendations other than the expensive VLS3.

    There isn't any difference between the brands, fish oil is fish oil. Both are highly, highly good for you. It's a good idea to take some on vacation, but I advise you to choose the most popular brand or a brand that you know worked for somebody else. Otherwise, if thats not an option because you don't know anybody that takes fish oil capsules, make sure it's tested by the FDA and you're sure it's good. Any other kind that just says "herbal remedy" is not tested and you won't know what you're putting in your body. Hope I helped : )

    Fish oil tablets did wonders for my staffy- Paws and Claws do a dog fish oil tablet for $20 for a container and its 2 per meal- it should come up when you google it. Also, I know that rice and pasta can give staffies rashes/allergie effects so if you are feeding that try and cut down maybe? Good luck, staffies really can be affected terribly by different things with their skin!

    All fish oil has Omega 3. It occurs naturally. You could also get it by eating fish: good ones are salmon, sardines, mackerel.
