Nutrition: cholesterol

Graphically represent (Moviemaker,PowerPoint,browchure,other) the “ins and outs” of cholesterol and what your body does with it. Your goal is to create something that makes sense of all this cholesterol information so that the “common consumer” can understand it. You must at least somehow include the following information:
·How/where your body makes cholesterol
·Where cholesterol comes from when you eat food (provide examples)
·What happens to cholesterol after you eat it and it is absorbed into bloodstream
·The role/source of LDL
·How Plaque forms on the inside walls of arteries
·The role/source of HDL
·The role/source of Bile
·Role of exercise in lowering cholesterol
