Prawns have fairly high cholesterol, but it's not the "bad" cholesterol. "Bad" cholesterol (the sort that gets in your blood and clogs your arteries) comes from saturated fats. So I wouldn't worry about prawns unless your doctor has specifically said to avoid them. Same goes for eggs.

It has been shown lately that diet hardly affects blood cholesterol levels, tho with a reading of 11.4 you need to be careful!!!
