Cholesterol?

I eat six times a day, not including the two protein shakes I have every day. I take in around 350mg of cholesterol a day, and thats as healthy as I can get it. I heard that eating whole grains helps with cholesterol. I eat a bowl of Kashi go lean, 3 Kashi granola bars, and I take garlique and fish oil pills every day. Will these things help with the cholesterol I eat.
My Daily Totals.
Fat – 38.5g
Sodium – 2060mg
Total Carbs – 280g
Protein – 184g
Cholesterol – 350mg
Saturated Fat – 6g
Fiber – 29g
Calories – 2030
And I drink about 160oz. of water.
Will the food, and pills I listed help control the cholesterol I am eating?

Thyroid problem?

I went to the doctor and told him I had put on 40plus lbs in 6 months I eat healthy exercise. I told him Im tired alot, headaches, the weight, and I feel like something is stuck in my throat at all time it drives me nuts. Could it be thyroid? Can the thyroid cause you to be moody extremely moody? he is doing blood work etc just wanting to get some ideas etc
Im almost 30, my mother had discovered thyroid problems when she was 34 so I pray its nothing serious cause I know what my mom goes through with it and other issues that have risen since
I did get my blood work done around 830 am after took the kids to school , also I get a ultrasound of my thyroid and throat etc in the morning

Cholesterol in Saturated and Unsaturated Fats?

Which would hold more cholesterol?

I tent to associate saturated fats with unhealthiness and cholesterol. Therefore I would guess saturated (even though I know cholesterol is good for you) fats have more cholesterol in them.

However, the fatty acids in unsaturated fats have kinks from carbon double bonding. That would make me think that more cholesterol could be found inside since there is more space between molecules.

I am just curious, thanks for those who reply!
