If your Cardiologist made that statement he or she is an imbecile...
the lean portion of either pork or beef contains the same quantity of
cholesterol by weight. Naturally how one trims the fatty portion will
dictate how much fat is ingested and therefore how much cholesterol.
But if your Cardiologist had an IQ he or she would realize that how
much cholesterol one ingests by eating meat depends entirely on which
cuts and how one trims the fat. Beef brisket contains a lot more fat
than pork loin. Bacon contains a lot more fat than beef round.
