Cholesterol Free Myth
‘Cholesterol free’ means ‘fat free’, true or false?
THIS IS FALSE
- Cholesterol is made by the body from dietary fat. A product labeled Cholesterol Free may not contain the specific fat molecule we call Cholesterol, but it may contain many of the hundreds of other types of fat.
- Being fat free is not always good either, as often other poor nutrients are added to these types of products like sugar and salt to improve the taste. You need to read the label closely.
