cholesterol is not an issue that is dependent on "meat" its more an issue of total diet combined, exercise and what what quantities of what types of fat you are eating. eskimos dont have cholesterol problems.

Right .. but one other important factor you left out. Hereditary. For three generations, EVERY man in my family had a heart attack or a bi-pass by age 50. Our arteries clog easily. Find me an eskimo with those numbers and then let's compare.
Chicken and beef were MY main sources of cholesterol. Naturally, that had to be the place I had to first cut back. No more complex than that. Now, cholesterol way down. Not necessarily the same for others but if you have insanely high cholesterol and realize you are eating eggs for breakfast, chicken for lunch, and beef for dinner every day like I did, the path to start on is pretty clear.
