Heart Disease or Clogged arteries

Heart Disease or Clogged arteries?
normally result from eating foods high in cholesterol, fats, sodium, etc, right? But what if a person hardly eats all day and then eats unhealthy foods but still does not exceed the daily amount of fat/cholesterol/sodium? Can this still cause clogged arteries or heart disease even though the person is not exceeding any limits? At the same time, though, it's similar to hardly eating but when they do eat, they eat fast foods or snack-like foods. Can this cause that damage?

dear, fast food/snack-like foods/junk foods/ or what ever u call it, all those are UNhealthy foods. fast foods, to make them readily served, are made up of preservatives, which is also made up of high amounts of sodium, so that the food will be preserved. another is that they are full of fats and cholesterol,especially burgers,lasagnas and the like. Remember, all preserved foods are high in sodium. junk foods are included also in the list. here's the patho physiology: long term intake of foods high in sodium, fats, and cholesterol may cause accumulation of fat deposits on the arterial wall, thus constricting the vessel. constriction of the vessel will result to hypertension. chronic hypertension with atherosclerosis may lead to a more fatal condition, or even death.. so, beware on what ur eating!!! GREEN IS IN! vege would be a great!!

Yes, if you do not supply your body with the right balances (including anti-oxidants), then with the diet you are following you are encouraging oxidation process, which will have the only results: Clogged arteries, heart disease, cerebrovascular attack or whatever you want
