Then you have a heart attack and die. For some people, this is worse than others. Little known fact: cigarette smoke is like 80% cholesterol, which is why smokers get heart disease!
Thats why you should avoid all cholesterol at all times and eat a low fat, plant based, earth friendly, renewable, heart healthy diet. If you MUST eat some fat, make sure you make smart choices, like "Smart Balance" margareen spread instead of butter. The new "I cant believe its not meat" products are also great - made mostly of bean pastes and beet juice!
You're welcome!
