Dietary cholesterol (shrimp, eggs) is a nothing burger and a red herring from the 1970s. Ignore concerns about dietary cholesterol. Cholesterol is mostly genetic and relates to how each person's liver operates.
Avoid and eschew "lite" and "low ____ [fill in the blank]".
Eat whole foods such as eggs, cheese, unprocessed meat, grains, oils (EVOO), nuts, vegetables and fruit. Bread has been a great food for thousands of years and is encouraged.
