Diet accounts for about 25% of the cholesterol levels in your body. Your liver synthesizes about the same amount, and the rest is synthesized in organs such as the intestines, the adrenals, and the reproductive organs. Obviously, trying to control cholesterol levels by solely changing diet will be effective only if levels are slightly out of whack. Although keep in mind, controlling diet is not just a question of regulating the cholesterol or fats that you eat; it is also a question of the soluble fiber (such as oat bran and psyllium husks) that you eat and which absorbs cholesterol and carries it out with your feces so that it never enters your bloodstream.
