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 am no expert......so take what I say with caution. I believe all chocolate contains some level of cadmium. As to the level, whether safe or unsafe, you have to ask the producer or have it tested yourself.

No worries there buddy. It's just like going to the store and buying a bag of chips, it's always half way filled. It's just the way these supplements are made, all of them form pills down to protein supplements. You should be looking at about 31.2oz at about 885g about a net way of 1.95lbs. It's more then enough to last you a month depending on your goals and how many grams of protien you are intaking daily per pound of body weight. And for the price your paying for, you can't beat it :) Your Good, no need to contact them.

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.

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.

It's titled "sweet garlic vegetable sauce" and it has 0% cholesterol and 0% trans fat. I personally don't use much of it as I'm not a fan of the taste. I think that the vegetables are moist and tasty enough without it.

Cho-lest-off is a wonderful product. I have used it since 2006. In 2006 I went on a statin (Lovastatin). After a few months I began having muscle pain and got off of it. With the Statin total cholesterol was 165 down from 220. I switched to Cholestoff and after two months I had my cholesterol measured again. The results were total cholesterol=165, LDL =76, just as good as the statin and no side effects. Hugh O.

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.

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

Mary: There is a scoop included (33 grams) which is considered a single serving upon which all of the nutritional information is based. I really enjoy it: it's clean, satisfying, eco-friendly packaging, lactose-free and a superior product, in my opinion, which is never humble. I've tried many other products and have yet to find one I like better. The 33g portion mixes up smooth, but with body and a luxurious mouth-feel, so you don't feel hungry or deprived, or disappointed by the watery texture. I also choose to bump mine up using Almond Milk instead of dairy, and fresh fruit makes it a true treat! Hope that is helpful!

Dear Johnathan, Thank you for your interest in BodyBoost Colostrum. Please know that we only sell the highest quality and most natural product available. The raw colostrum from each dairy undergoes a testing protocol to assure it is from the first milking, free of antibiotics, pesticides and Bst's. We do not own the dairy farms but only deal with farmers that have excellent farming practices and very healthy cows. We asked the farmers to certify that pesticides and antibiotics are not part of their animals food supply and as well as Bst's and we verify this by testing the raw colostrum in our factory. We do not control the diets of these animals but our farmers need healthy cows to have a financially sound farm. The cows do graze most of the time but are fed a grain diet while they are being milked that is comprised of approximately 30% soybean meal with the balance being corn and oats. The cows need this to produce a healthy and good tasting milk. We purchase appox 14 liters out of the first milking of approx 18 liters, once a year from each cow that has a calf, which amounts to about one tenth of one percent of that cows milk. I am not aware of any dairy farmer that does not feed their cows grain during the milking process and the grain mixture used is based on research done by Universities that have Agricultural programs. Again I thank you for your interest hope this information allows you to enjoy the health benefits of BodyBoost Whole Colostrum. . Enjoy in good health, John

There are only 1 gram of Carbs per scoop (one serving). Depending on the liquid you use, this will add to the total. Also this is the most delicious of the Protein Isolates I have tasted. NO medicinal after-taste. Enjoy and buy with confidence.

I still haven't figured anything out about the pectin but have been having good luck with using about 3 tablespoons of non-fat dry milk powder. I wouldn't think this should contribute to bad cholesterol as it is made only from skim milk.
