What Is The Worst Food That Produces Bad Cholesterol

What is the worst food that produces bad cholesterol is an interesting subject. After all, we have heard a lot about heart healthy foods and some suspicious minded individuals might come to the conclusion that this is by design. Think about it, when you go to the supermarket heart healthy products are labeled as such, products that contain cholesterol lowering plant stanols and sterols are clearly marked. But where is the flashing neon sign proudly proclaiming that I am the worst food that produces bad cholesterol. And if you pay close attention you will find these products (no sign) at eye level, in many instances.

But what is the worst food that produces bad cholesterol. Honestly, it is difficult to pick a winner in the worst food that produces bad cholesterol category. Who gets the blue ribbon, the trophy for finishing first for clogging more arteries than any other product on the market.

I recently saw a show on television about one nationality that loved to consume massive amounts of animal fat. Well that one isn’t sold in my grocery store, thus it is deemed ineligible , and can’t win the award. Lets narrow it down to four choices.

*Stick butter: Stick butter is pure butter fat. It tastes great, is a good source for energy, works well on cooking burns, and is used for making delicious recipes worldwide. And perhaps more importantly, in the category of food that produces bad cholesterol is 65 percent saturated fat.

*Coconut/Coconut Oil: Nothing better than a couple of scoops of coconut ice cream or some French fries fried up in coconut oil. Hard to resist, right! What if I told you coconut oil was 93 percent saturated fat and that a 2 inch square of coconut contained 15 grams of coconut oil. It’s a good thing those stranded boater got off of that deserted island teaming with coconuts. Why worry about sharks when you have coconuts.

*Beef liver: Now I realize that most of you don’t wake up in the morning dreaming of having a king sized potion of beef liver but there is a restaurant close to where I live that sells liver and onions like crazy. As far as fat and cholesterol go it would just make sense that liver is really high in saturated fat and cholesterol since the liver is responsible for producing the body’s daily requirements for cholesterol. Liver is over 60 percent saturated fat and a 3 ounce serving contains a whopping 330 mg of cholesterol. That should be enough to get your own sign that proclaims liver is the worst food that produces bad cholesterol. Or at least a sign in the meat department.

In the end I can’t pick a winner. They are all so deserving of the being deemed the winner that it just wouldn’t be right to give one of them first place. I will leave it up to you to sort this one out.
