Nice find and good read

Roughly 1.5 g of cholesterol is required daily in adults for a variety of essential functions, and 0.3 g (about half of ingested cholesterol) can be obtained from 2 eggs plus 100 g meat and the rest (∼1.2 g), the majority of daily required amount, is biosynthesized in adult tissues. The cholesterol taken-up by HDL is transferred to LDL, which is redistributed to and reused by peripheral tissues.


When adding cholesterol to your diet the trick is to eat only non-oxidized cholesterol!
eg. Eggs should always be fresh (days not weeks old)

Scientists have known for years that a reaction between fats and oxygen, a process termed oxidation, produces oxycholesterol in the body. Oxidation occurs, for instance, when fat-containing foods are heated, as in frying chicken or grilling burgers or steaks. Food manufacturers produce oxycholesterol intentionally in the form of oxidized oils such as trans-fatty acids and partially-hydrogenated vegetable oils.When added to processed foods, those substances improve texture, taste and stability.
