Do not listen to the above comment, I am in medical school. Yes dietary cholesterol affects your cholesterol levels. But Cholesterol has many important functions, hormones, phospholipid bilayers of cells, etc. And also remember there are different kinds of lipids, some kinds are good for you. And there is good cholesterol HDL and bad cholesterol LDL. But no this product does not contain too much cholesterol. This product is top notch and doesn't use useless amino acids (amino spiking) to falsify the amount of protein in there product. I. Ayon is wrong, please do not listen to him...

My uneducated guess? The cholesterol comes from the flavoring. The protein you linked is unflavored and probably tastes horrible.

What I am trying to ask is whether it is healthy enough to consume a product which has 10% cholesterol 4-5 times a week?

I'm not sure, but they include a bigger scoop than other brands. This type of advertising is another reason this protein is suspect. The main reason I don't use it anymore is because testing found that it had far less protein than the label says.http://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness/comments/uva9t/big_reddit_protein_powder_measurement_results/

I went to Nature Made and I construed that they sold off ALL of the flaxseed oil inventory, as none appear on that site. Moreover, the site page has a duration of mere minute(s), another worry-some factor. Last, the label would identify the strength off the Omega3 content (Alpha L., Linoleic Acid and Oleic Acid) . Anyway, Puritan Pride's figures are best: 500, 110 and 110mgs, respectively. Pricing is best, too. Shop you must. Amazon is best for that. Rosie-39@ live.com

The way you phrased your question ("your" dark chocolate), it sounds like you are asking the manufacturer. I recommend you contact http://us.greenandblacks.com/ to ask them about the different sugar content in their 85% cacao bars.

I have the same question, why is this only available in VERY VANILLA.. I only buy the very vanilla type because I have no other choice, but this is too sweet for me, too! Soy is healthy, but the sugar content in it? That makes me nervous.. I hope that the SILK company will start making the original -- or even the no sugar-added soymilk in tetrapacks, like this!

Hi! When I was buying this product i was checking all the ingredients to make sure i got what I really want. And as their web site says "Platinum Hydrowhey is ultra-pure. That's because it's made entirely with hydrolyzed whey protein isolates. So there's no excess fat, cholesterol, or lactose to slow down your progress." I hope my answer will help you! Vitaliy H.

My vanilla almond has 2g if fat and 60mg cholesterol in one serving with water. I say creamy because it does already contain milk, so it isn't watery or chalky like other brands.

None listed on label, though much of this concept seems irrelevant since cholesterol is naturally made in the body & has many necessary functions. And of course there is "good cholesterol" & "bad cholesterol". Some research seems to show refined carbs may contribute more to body fat/"bad cholesterol". Individuals have different sensitivities to good fats/bad fats as well as to good carbs/bad carbs. You may want to recheck with your own doctor(s) about your own cholesterol test numbers & what they mean for you.

I've been using it for over 5 months now. After 2 months I went and had my cholesterol checked and it is the lowest it has ever been in almost 10 years. The only thing I have changed was adding pine bark extract to my diet.

None, this is a vegan product. Cholesterol only occurs in animal foods and this is a plant based protein.

I think there is a variety that has chocolate, but the regular PB2 does not. It is a wonderful alternative to the full fat/sugar peanut butter if you are watching the waistline. I mix it with Greek yogurt or in my morning shake.

55%- Chocolove bars are VERY rich. if you like dark chocolate this is the stuff for you. 55% is plenty as the chocolate is high quality and strong.

Cholesterol in food is not bad, only what your own body produces matters. And 50% of people having heart attacks have low levels of it. Egg yolks are high in lethecin, which dissolves cholesterol. So does non-GMO soy and the granules taste great. Good in smoothies. (Lethicin? Not sure if has I or e in the middle)
