Chylomicrons are the largest and least-dense of the lipoproteins. They are produced by the intestine during absorption of dietary fats and are released into the lymphatic system before entering the bloodstream. Their large size and low density allow them to transport large amounts of dietary lipids and cholesterol throughout the body.
