Hardening of the arteries leads to blockages in the arteries, and these blockages can block blood flow and affect the supply of oxygen to the cells.
In coronary heart disease there are blockages in the coronary arteries, which supply blood to myocardial cells.
As a result, it can cause permanent damage to the heart muscle, which does not get enough oxygen. As a result of these damages, coronary heart disease can cause a heart attack.
Blockages in arteries that supply blood to the brain can lead to a stroke and paralysis.
The artery blockage is the result of an ongoing atherosclerosis.
The main factors for the development of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease are: Behavioral factors: smoking, a diet rich in fats derived from animals, lack of physical activity, obesity, and factors not related to us: sex, age, genetic predisposition.
