EFFECT OF DIETARY CHOLESTEROL ON YOUR BLOOD CHOLESTEROL.

How does dietary cholesterol affect blood cholesterol?

The amount of cholesterol in your diet and the amount of cholesterol in your blood are very different things.

Although it may seem logical that eating cholesterol would raise blood cholesterol levels, it usually doesn't work that way.

The body tightly regulates the amount of cholesterol in the blood by controlling its production of cholesterol.

When your dietary intake of cholesterol goes down, your body makes more. When you eat greater amounts of cholesterol, your body makes less. Because of this, foods high in dietary cholesterol have very little impact on blood cholesterol levels in most people (9Trusted Source, 10Trusted Source, 11Trusted Source, 12Trusted Source).

However, in some people, high-cholesterol foods raise blood cholesterol levels. These people make up about 40% of the population and are often referred to as "hyperresponders." This tendency is considered to be genetic (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source).

Even though dietary cholesterol modestly increases LDL in these individuals, it does not seem to increase their risk of heart disease (15Trusted Source, 16Trusted Source).

This is because the general increase in LDL particles typically reflects an increase in large LDL particles — not small, dense LDL. In fact, people who have mainly large LDL particles have a lower risk of heart disease (3Trusted Source).

Hyperresponders also experience an increase in HDL particles, which offsets the increase in LDL by transporting excess cholesterol back to the liver for elimination from the body (17Trusted Source).

As such, while hyperresponders experience raised cholesterol levels when they increase their dietary cholesterol, the ratio of LDL to HDL cholesterol in these individuals stays the same and their risk of heart disease doesn't seem to go up.

Of course, there are always exceptions in nutrition, and some individuals may see adverse effects from eating more cholesterol-rich foods.
