The body naturally produces cholesterol. The less cholesterol you ingest,

the more cholesterol your body produces until it reaches the level your body

needs for cell rejuvenation. People on cholesterol-free diets can get very

sick because they put nothing in their bodies to manufacture cholesterol.

If you ingest too much cholesterol, then your arteries may clog up. Any fat

product, animal or vegetable, will help the body manufacture cholesterol.

So, even though some margarines may not contain cholesterol, the fat in them

will cause the cholesterol in your body to rise to dangerous levels. It is

my understanding that if a person has a lifelong habit of eating lots of

whole grain products and drinking alcohol in moderation, they are less

likely to have a cholesterol problem. My philosophy is moderation and stick

to those foods Mother Nature intended you to eat. Avoid those she did not.

I already have several to use for cleaning stuff I mix up. Will get one just

for cooking oil.
