You're welcome kathy. I would also like to add lamb, beef kidney on the high cholesterol foods list. Just an added note, you can always cook/eat egg whites instead. Egg whites contains no cholesterol.

It is important that we know which foods are high in cholesterol so we avoid them if not minimize eating them to reduce the risk of heart disease.

I always incorporate oats in my diet because it helps lower bad cholesterol in our body for a healthy heart. Staying active and constantly exercising are as important too so we have to keep in mind that dieting is just not enough.
