Blood vessels are all over the body and are important pipelines for blood circulation. If the pipe is blocked? What will happen to human health? Of course it's serious. So what will clog the blood vessels? Is it garbage, toxin, or metabolic waste? All right, the culprit of the blockage is the fat you and I take in daily, including fat and fat like substances.
Lipids, such as cholesterol, accumulate in blood vessels for a long time, which is easy to cause plaque in arteries. If this plaque breaks, it will form thrombus , blocking blood vessels, leading to a series of subsequent serious diseases, such as cerebral infarction miocardial infarction 。

When the human body ingests too much nutrition and the metabolism cannot discharge excess lipids and nutrients in time, these substances will stay in the blood vessels and deposit on the blood vessel walls. In addition to blocking blood vessels, it will also increase blood viscosity and cause thrombosis.
