Hi Guys,

I am a vegetarian. So I take lot of protein supplement. I am taking 5 serving’s 100% whey protein every day. I am a bit concerned about the cholesterol content of this product. It has 75mg of cholesterol per serving. Is it safe to take 5 serving of this protein supplement every day?

I think it is safe to take 1 to 1.5 grams per lb. of body weight a day. Anyone disagree?

75 mg. of dietary cholesterol is nothing.
