New research now reveals that a hidden culprit behind clogged arteries is often dangerous blood clots triggered by inflammation or by injury to your arterial walls— and this problem may be much worse than cholesterol and plaque alone. For example, inflammation in your blood vessels... 1. Activates clotting in your blood that uses cholesterol like brick and mortar 2. WHICH IN TURN... 3. Creates blood clots that act like rebar framework (reinforcing metal rods). The result? Blood clots can clog or block tiny veins and arteries throughout your body, causing you problems ranging from cold hands and feet to varicose veins, from cramping in your legs to vision problems, from a weak heart to high blood pressure, from lagging libido to low energy. In the worse case, your larger arteries are not just clogged, they're completely BLOCKED! And when that happens, bingo, blood flow is cut off to your heart, brain or lungs—and you could have a health catastrophe!
