Why is it that eggs and cholesterol are so closely related? 

Since eggs are a good source of cholesterol in the diet, the two go hand in hand. In the cells of every living thing, including humans, you can find cholesterol, a waxy, lipid-like material. 

The body cannot function properly without it because of the important roles it plays in hormone production, vitamin D synthesis, and cell membrane construction. 

There is a disproportionate amount of cholesterol in egg yolks. The yolk alone contains about 186 mg of cholesterol, yet one large egg has just one yolk. 

Eggs and other high-cholesterol foods were long thought to boost blood cholesterol levels and put people at risk for cardiovascular disease. 

Newer studies have revealed, however, that there is more nuance to the connection between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol levels than was previously believed. 

Although some people may see a rise in LDL (bad) cholesterol levels after consuming dietary cholesterol, this effect is not nearly as strong as was previously thought.  

Cholesterol regulation mechanisms exist in the body, and dietary cholesterol consumption might not significantly affect blood cholesterol levels as thought.  

An individual's cholesterol levels and risk of heart disease are influenced by a number of factors, including their genes, nutrition, and lifestyle choices.
