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?

It tastes good. Try it with vanilla unsweetened almond milk, very delicious. You do know vibrant health has this very same green drink IN a protein powder? The chocolate one is amazing.

Sorry, don't know. I have been using it for years, instead of perscriptions for lowering cholesterol, with success.

Not sure why they are selling directly on website but it is a better deal than I bought. previously it was only available through Chiropractors and natural health doctors. I am not sure of the total ingredients but main item is the purified HCG. during the diet I lost 1/2 to 2 lbs everyday. You must drink at least half of your body weight in water a day to effectively loose the weight. if you are 200lbs drink 100 ounces of water. Your body basically feeds off the excess fat in your body. I ate between 800 and 1000 calories a day. Protocol states 500-800 a day. Men will loose weight faster than women. You need to follow the 2day pre-diet and eat lots of fatty foods to prime your body.

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.

Cholesterol generally in itself is not the issue. It's the source. Cholesterol from whole foods like this product is absorbed and used by your body as it should be. Cholesterol from processed, hydrogenated, partially hydrogenated sources sticks to your arteries. Hope this helps

That frustrates me too. Why mess up a otherwise great product? Practically everything is using this crap now. I think I will try the Raw Organic Whey - USDA Certified Organic Whey Protein, 12oz next. But the shipping is killing my pockets. I wish I could get it locally.

I don't know for sure, because there are no nutritional values listed on the label, i.e., fat content, carbohydrate content, sugar, sodium e.t.c. Does anybody know. It seems to be pure but can not tell for sure. I use it to make sugar free dark chocolate, with sugar free Cocoa powder and Stevia powder instead of sugar

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.

Not really. It depends on what else you're eating and how physically active you are. If you are eating a lot of foods that are high in cholesterol, then you need to be concerned. If you are consuming massive amounts of whey protein on a daily basis and not being physically active, there is cause for concern. I am not a doctor and I don't know your personal health situation. For me, after a year of using organic whey protein, my bad cholesterol has gone done and my good cholesterol is up. I also do hard physical work every day and watch my diet carefully. My son had to have his bodyfat checked for wrestling, so I had mine taken for the fun of it, and it was 10%. Hope this helps you. Not really.
