Detailed explanation-1: -Slower Blood Flow Within hours after eating a high fat meal, our blood gets thicker and milky with fat, which slows down blood flow to the heart.
Detailed explanation-2: -Atherosclerosis, sometimes called “hardening of the arteries, ” occurs when fat, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of arteries. These deposits are called plaques. Over time, these plaques can narrow or completely block the arteries and cause problems throughout the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -This fat can plug up your arteries and keep the blood from flowing through them. If an artery going to your heart gets blocked, you might have a heart attack. If an artery going to your brain gets blocked, you might have a stroke. A high LDL level causes heart disease, stroke, poor circulation and kidney disease.
Detailed explanation-4: -You can take steps to reduce plaques by losing weight, exercising more, or eating fewer foods high in saturated fat. In some cases, doctors may also prescribe medications to lower cholesterol.
