A Cholesteron is a yellow enemy in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, and are found in Bowser's body in the Challenge Node. Their name is a pun on "cholesterol". They can be encountered by choosing to participate in Cholesteroad. Instead of attacking, they serve as a punching bag to Mario and Luigi. The bros. can pound on them with Special Attacks to score points. Small Cholesterons are very weak and have little HP; however, there are much larger versions of Cholesterons that take more effort and time to beat. Cholesterons are never seen outside the Challenge Node.
In the 3DS version, large Cholesterons appear to be in pain when slain.

Trivia[edit]
- The Magic Window's minigame in the Cholesteroad is the only challenge there to have Cholesterons that face away from the Bros. at the start; however, the Cholesteron on the right still faces in the Bros.' direction before the attack starts. It is also the only one not to have large Cholesterons.
