In the 1970s, a low fat, low cholesterol diet became part of the United States' dietary regulations. Unfortunately, the evidence based research behind these recommendations fell short. Only a few studies were done to support this method of eating and elements of this research was later withdrawn.
Eating saturated fat, cholesterol, or anything, for that matter is just fine. Like always, everything must be consumed in moderation.
The lesson here is that no one food group is bad for human beings. The real problem rather, stems from how much is eaten, how frequently it is consumed, and methods of preparation.
In order to reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) and raise good cholesterol (HDL), eat well, don't smoke and exercise. How shocking! Don't worry about one type of food.
