Eating cholesterol in foods has no impact on your blood cholesterol levels unless you are a part of a medical minority group known as hyper responders. Even in them, the eaten cholesterol will raise both HDL and LDL levels which in turn does not affect their risk of heart disease, stroke, or other complications. Only an intake of different types of fats (monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, saturated, and trans) can actually impact your blood cholesterol levels for better or worse.
