In this era of growing health awareness, many people are beginning to pay attention to health indicators such as blood lipids and cholesterol in pursuit of a better quality of life. It is widely believed that controlling blood lipids to not be too high is a key step to maintaining health. But did you know that controlling blood lipids is not simply a matter of eating fewer eggs?
We often hear that eggs have a high cholesterol content, so many people mistakenly believe that avoiding high cholesterol means avoiding eggs. Eating eggs has little impact on our cholesterol levels because most of the cholesterol in our bodies is produced by our liver and not directly caused by the foods we eat. So, what foods are the real “cholesterol heavyweights”?

Imagine a middle-aged man who enjoys eating meat, especially red meat and processed meats like sausages and bacon. He recently discovered that his blood lipid levels are high, and the doctor advised him to adjust his eating habits. In fact, these processed meats not only contain high levels of saturated fats but also have some components that promote cholesterol synthesis, making them hidden culprits that lead to elevated blood lipids.
For instance, consider a middle-aged woman who loves baking and enjoys making cakes and cookies at home. What she doesn’t know is that the butter and some types of vegetable oils used in these desserts, especially partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, contain a significant amount of trans fats.
We can see that to effectively control blood lipids, simply reducing egg intake is far from enough. Instead, paying attention to the types of foods that truly affect blood lipids, along with overall lifestyle and dietary habits, is far more crucial.
There are foods that may seem healthy in the average person’s diet but can actually influence the control of blood lipids. In particular, shrimp, chicken liver, and pig’s trotters are three types of ingredients that, for those striving to maintain or improve their blood lipid levels, may not be wise choices when consumed in excess.
