Hence, it is important for our health to keep these vital channels in tip-top shape. Dr Rakesh Rajpurohit MD, Consultant Pulmonologist and Critical Care Medical at Jain Multi-Specialty Hospital, tells Zarafshan Shiraz, “Clogged arteries or blocked up arteries are basically an underlying plaque in the blood vessels which is made of calcium, cholesterol and cellular debris. Clogged up arteries may put a risk of sudden heart attack, heart failure or even stroke.” Anam Golandaz, Clinical Dietician at Masina Hospital in Mumbai reveals, “Unhealthy arteries are called as atherosclerosis—an inflammatory condition where plaques (fatty deposits composed of cholesterol and other substances) build up inside arteries, which interferes with normal blood flow and can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, and stroke.” (Photo by Victoria Shes on Unsplash)")
