Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The study, published Aug. 13 in Science, suggests that consuming food rich in saturated fat and choline-a nutrient found in red meat, eggs and dairy products-increases the number of metabolites that build plaques in the arteries.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bad cholesterol is called low-density lipoprotein (LDL). This is the culprit that makes plaque form in your arteries. Having too many LDLs can lead to heart disease over time.
Detailed explanation-4: -Saturated fat tends to raise levels of cholesterol in the blood. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is called “bad” cholesterol.
