Ans) The science is clear that up to 3 whole eggs per day are perfectly safe for healthy people.
- Eggs consistently raise HDL (the “good”) cholesterol.
- For 70% of people, there is no increase in total or LDL cholesterol. Some people may experience a mild increase in a benign subtype of LDL.
- Egg whites and cholesterol
When it comes to egg whites, it's true that there's no cholesterol
in the white part of an egg. A whole large egg contains 186 mg of
cholesterol, but all of that is found in the yolk, or yellow part.
But the effects of eggs on your heart may not be as bad as once

A family member recently found out that he has high LDL cholesterol and low HDL cholesterol. He has been advised by his doctor to change his diet to help improve these cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Describe 2 specific dietary changes he could make to his typical lunch to improve these blood cholesterol values. You may increase, decrease, add or replace current items in the diet. Then explain how these changes will improve his blood cholesterol...

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is sometimes called the “good cholesterol” because high values are associated with a lower risk of heart disease. According to the American Heart Association, people over the age of 20 years should have at least 40 mg/dL of HDL cholesterol. HDL cholesterol levels for men have a mean of 46 mg/dL with a standard deviation of 13.6 mg/dL. Assume that the distribution is Normal. HDL levels of 60 mg / dL are believed to protect people from...
Why are LDL low density lipoproteins considered to be the "bad" cholesterol relative to the high density lipoprotein particles? A) HDL particles contain a different form of cholesterol B) Because the lower the density of the particle, the more cholesterol it contains. C) Because HDL receptors are not found on cells
Question 2 cholesterol levels predict heart disease risks more accurately than total cholesterol level. HDL HDL and LDL LDL VLDL Triglyceride
A cholesterol screening finds that a person's blood serum has 38 mg/dL HDL and 190 mg/dL LDL a. Are these values within the normal range? o Yes No b. How many grams of HDL are present in 3.0 mL of the serum? the tolerance is +/-29% c. How many micrograms of LDL are present in 2.5 x 10-4 L of the serum? the tolerance is +/-2% d. What is the LDL/HDL ratio? Is this value considered to be healthy? No...
A doctor wanted to determine whether there was a relation between age and HDL cholesterol. He randomly selected 5 patients and obtained the following data.

During 2015–2016, 12.4% of adults had high total cholesterol and 18.4% had low HDL cholesterol. There were no significant race and Hispanic-origin differences in high total cholesterol overall or in men, but non-Hispanic white women had a higher prevalence of high total cholesterol than Hispanic women. The prevalence of low HDL cholesterol was lowest in non-Hispanic black adults and highest in Hispanic adults overall and for men, and the percentage with low HDL cholesterol was higher in Hispanic women than...
Background Cholesterol is a waxy, fatty substance found in the bloodstream. Serum Cholesterol measures the level of both good (HDL) and bad (LDL) cholesterol in your blood. For adults, a desirable cholesterol level will be between 125 mg/dL and 200 mg/dL. A borderline high cholesterol count is between 200 mg/dL and 239 mg/dL, and any reading from 240 mg/dL and beyond is considered high. High serum cholesterol levels could result in complications including stroke, heart attack, or coronary artery disease....
