High cholesterol levels are especially harmful to health.
A diet high in cholesterol leads to the formation of plaques in blood vessels, causing heart attacks and strokes.
Candidate of Medical Sciences, surgeon and oncologist Mark Gadziyan told in his Telegram channel which products are dangerous for blood vessels.
The first place on the list is occupied by sausages and sausage products.
According to the doctor, the large amount of salt and chemical additives in these products negatively affect blood flow and contribute to the accumulation of cholesterol in the vessels.
Fast food is in second place. Popular food is rich in harmful fats, which lead to the accumulation of "bad" cholesterol.
The third place is occupied by semi-finished products, including sausages and ready-made meat dishes. They also contain a lot of saturated fats, which clog blood vessels.
Gadzian strongly recommends reducing the consumption of foods containing cholesterol.
Proper nutrition will reduce the load on the heart and blood vessels and maintain good health for many years.
For reference
Cholesterol leads to atherosclerosis of blood vessels, which can cause cholesterol embolism.
