Chicken is pretty high in cholesterol but chicken is still lower in cholesterol than other meats.

For example chicken contains around 123 mg of cholesterol while hamburger meat and a hamburger patty contains as much as 354 mg of cholesterol.

So if you want to eat meat and need to watch your cholesterol levels then eating chicken is much healthier for you than eating hamburger meat or hamburger patties because the chicken is much lower in cholesterol than hamburger.

Chicken is considered one of the healthiest meats that you can eat aside from fish.

Fish is considered to be a brain food and can help possibly prevent dementia and other brain issues.

But even chicken is still pretty healthy for you.
