Cholesterol is manufactured in the human liver. The production of cholesterol depends on the dietary intake. If the intake of cholesterol trough diet is increased then the body's own production will be decreased. This ensures that the necessary amount of cholesterol isavailable for the human cells and that the amount isn't elevated.
