Hope I helped =)Www@FoodAQ@Com

all animals, including humans, make their own cholesterol!.
that is why eating animals gives us unnecessary and dangerous cholesterol!.
when you eat another animal, such as tilapia, you also consume the cholesterol they created!.

so yes, there is cholesterol in fish!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think it has cholesterol in it!. Almost everything does!. But it's one of those things that has a safe amount in it!. =) It's better if it's fresh!. If you get something with batter on it, not so healthy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not much, very good for you!. Just depends on how you cook it!. Baking or steaming is best!. Adding butter and such would add the cholesterol!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, most animal products do have cholesterol!. But fish is lower in cholesterol and more healthy than say, beef or porkWww@FoodAQ@Com
