Cholesterin and the Rye Free Diet

Cholesterin, or cholesterol, is a sterol, a type of lipid molecule, that is found in the cell membranes of animal tissues. It plays a crucial role in maintaining cell membrane integrity and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of steroid hormones, bile acids, and vitamin D. Cholesterol is not found in plant-based foods, making it absent in a vegan diet.
