    The answer is C.

    But I don't think this is a site that's supposed to do your homework for you! :P

    folling is incorrect

    I misread that and thought it asked which was correct. The incorrect one is that we consume all our cholesterol.

    Is this a "best of" or "single" answer type of quiz?

    C. The whole point of statin drugs is to reduce our own synthesis of cholesterol.

    Yep, it's a myth that there's a direct link between blood cholesterol levels and diet - the relationship is actually pretty poorly understood.
