No, cholesterol is an essential steroidal alcohol (or sterol) found in the cells of all animals. Cholesterol has acquired a bad medical reputation because of the tendency for it to accumulate on the interior lining of small blood vessels, creating waxy blockages in many people which cause strokes and heart attacks. Cholesterol is manufactured in the body, mainly in the liver. It has been widely accepted that reducing your dietary intake of fats and cholesterol reduces the amount of cholesterol in the bloodstream; but studies have shown that the liver increases its production of cholesterol to keep blood cholesterol levels fairly constant regardless of dietary intake. There is ongoing debate in the medical community on this issue.
