Cholesterol

Cholesterol, also known as cholesterin or cordulan, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cholesterols and derivatives. Cholesterols and derivatives are compounds containing a 3-hydroxylated cholestane core. Thus, cholesterol is considered to be a sterol lipid molecule. Cholesterol is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Cholesterol is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
