Cholesterol and calories are not really linked. Cholesterol is more about learning the difference types of fats (lipids). There are good fats and bad fats. There is also good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. For instance, olive oil and salmon help to raise your good cholesterol, even though they contain fats.
