Now lets briefly study atherosclerosis get to know what really it is…

  Atherosclerosis is what some people call “hardening of the arteries.” Plaque, which is cholesterol, calcium, and other substances, builds up in the walls of blood vessels. This can happen anywhere in the body. Coronary heart disease occurs if plaque builds up in the coronary arteries of the heart. The plaque buildup narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow to your heart muscle. The plaque can rupture and cause a blood clot to form. This further narrows the artery and the process repeats itself. Over time, the artery gets narrower and narrower, reducing blood flow even more.

(Remember keep following the conversation to get to know how to prevent and control such conditions)
