How much cholesterol?

[FrostedShores]

So I know cholesterol is good for a whole host of things, especially hormone synthesis, but how much dietary cholesterol is recommended? I searched the forum, and while I found plenty of discussion regarding cholesterol, I couldn't find anything in terms of amount. What's a good target to aim for each day? I currently get 1 to 1.5 grams per day. Does the ratio of cholesterol to things like saturated fat, MUFA/PUFA, etc. matter? Thanks in advance.

I don't think you need to stress about it. Just eat eggs and meat almost daily and you are good to go.
If you can't kill your paranoia, eat some pig brain, you can get easily 5g of cholesterol in a day.

Three Eggs a Day = Doping for Your Heart Health: Larger LDL & HDL, Increased Efflux and Transport + More Benefits

Don't miss out on a long-neglected superfood. With the latest study from the University of Connecticut the evidence of beneficial (heart-)health effects of increased egg consumption keeps accumulating - and this time, we are up to three eggs per day in healthy subjects.

I just happened to listen to Peat talk about this on Herb Doctors Bioenergetic Search type in "arsenic" and go down to the one that says 27:00. He says in experiments people weren't able to raise their cholesterol by eating 20 egg yolks a day but that drinking orange juice is a practical way to raise cholesterol.

Ripe Fruits, Fruit Juices, Sucrose (MX Coke), and One Time i heard Ray mention Starches can contribute to C27H460 production.

In a KMUD Radio spot they asked Ray what might be a symptom of a person with Low Cholesterol.
He answered to the effect of: They Would probably have a craving for sweets.
