Cholesterol or metabolites of cholesterol
Yes, vitamin D is derived from cholesterol.Hint: "Read your Physiology textbook.
Your body converts cholesterol into Vitamin D. Cholesterol also facilitates memory.
Cholesterol is the precursor of bile acid, steroid hormones and vitamin D.
There is more than one type of cholesterol. The two main types, low-density lipoprotein (LDL, bad) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL, good). High levels of LDL can be fatal, while low levels of HDL can lead to heart disease.

Cholesterol gives these benefits in your body:Membrane fluidity in cell membranesDigestion (Cholesterol is used to make bile salts to help emulsify fats in the diet)Hormones (Cholesterol can be made into body hormones)Vitamin D (Cholesterol can be made into vitamin D in skin)
Cholesterol is measured in units called millimoles per litre of blood "mmol/litre" or "mmol/l". America uses the units milligrams per decilitre of blood: mg/d "mmol/litre" or "mmol/l". America uses the units milligrams per decilitre of blood: mg/dl instead. It is desirable to have a total cholesterol level under 5 mmol/l, and an LDL level under 3 mmol/l. l instead. It is desirable to have a total cholesterol level under 5 mmol/l, and an LDL level under 3 mmol/l.
The building block of steroid hormones and vitamin D is cholesterol. Cholesterol serves as the precursor molecule for the synthesis of these important biological compounds in the body.
No. Cholesterol is a lipid and is a precursor to vitamin D and steroid hormones.
Vitamin D is synthesized when modified Cholesterol molecules. . .
Actually, your body needs cholesterol to function. It helps create hormones, Vitamin D and bile acids.A problem arises when you have too much of the "bad" cholesterol in your system.When your doctor does a cholesterol panel, it looks at HDLs (good cholesterols) and LDLs (bad cholesterols). LDLs adhere to arterial walls and can lead to blockages. The end result is an increased risk for stroke or heart attack.While high cholesterol can run in families, most people's cholesterol is high because they consume too many animal products that are high in this bad cholesterol. Think beef, lamb and pork products. Fish is also high in cholesterol, but the fats tend to be unsaturated, and the cholesterol is considered "good."
