Cholesterol is a fatty substance found in the bloodstream. Cholesterol in the human body is primarily produced by the liver and also comes from the consumption of animal products such as dairy, eggs, and meat.

The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) notes that every 100 grams of beef contains 9.2 grams of total fat and 70 milligrams of cholesterol.

Meanwhile, every 100 grams of goat meat contains 14 grams of total fat and 70 milligrams of cholesterol.

Fat and cholesterol are essential nutrients for health. However, excessive levels can lead to diseases such as narrowing of blood vessels, hardening of the arteries, stroke, and heart disease.

Therefore, in the document *Balanced Nutrition Guidelines*, Kemenkes recommends a limit of beef consumption of 35 grams or one medium serving per day. The recommended limit for goat meat consumption is 40 grams or one medium serving per day.
