Many folks will argue with you that Cholesterol in foods (meat, eggs...) is NOT dangerous... think of it this way... our ancestors would have all died off because they ate a diet rich in meat... the Eskimos would all be dead and their diet is primarily meat.

It seems that problems with serum cholesterol can be genetic. Your body manufactures cholesterol. Some people (like me) can eat eggs, red meat, butter without concern for cholesterol levels. The more important number is the HDL/LDL cholesterol ratios in your blood chemistry. Mine is excellent, so I don't worry about it.

Of course, not being obese and getting regular exercise don't hurt.

Absolutely! It sounds like you know what you are talking about. I am similar to you. I eat eggs and meat every day. I also eat lots of raw veggies and exercise too. But I think it is a myth that eating lean beef and eggs are dangerous to your cholesterol levels...
