If cholesterol is the precurser for progesterone and male and female sex 
hormones than if a person doesn't consume adequate amounts of cholesterol and 
their liver doesn't produce enough would the person age or lose their physical 
sexual identity....what if they are anorexic and the body isn't getting 
adequate amounts of cholesterol?
