You will see a video of real life atherosclerotic plaque and you will see how it is FIBROUS SCAR TISSUE AND NOT AT ALL LIKE the mainstream media's COMPLETELY ERRONEOUS representation of it.

Yes, it's absolutely true that atherosclerotic plaques are much more complicated than being simple blobs of fat stuck to your arteries the way that many people imagine they are, however, it does not follow from that that cholesterol plays no role in their formation.
It is a fact that these plaques will generally start as lipid deposits, which will gradually, and with deposition of more lipids, grow into large, fibrotic plaques through the actions of many blood cells and the vascular endothelium itself. It has also been shown that the plaques tend to advance faster in individuals with elevated LDL counts and may stabilize or even regress if those LDL counts are lowered enough.
Interestingly enough, it's not really the large, fibrotic plaques that cause the problem, even when they occlude over 90% of the lumen of the blood vessel. This is because these plaques are generally stable and grow slowly, the ones that tend to cause heart attacks have less fibrous tissue and are more prone to breaking, which exposes the thrombogenic surface below the fibrous cap, thus initiating the formation of a thrombus that can block the vessel very rapidly, starving the downstream myocardium and causing a heart attack.
There is a great deal of information about this process, it's one of the most highly studied in all of medicine and affects millions of people, check it out, the answers are never as simple as they seem at first.

VEINS NEVER become sclerotic. NEVER .

They have just as much "cholesterol" in them as do the arteries.



Atherosclerotic lesions are NOT caused by cholesterol!

DAMAGE to the endothileum/ AND OR I N F L A M A T I O N by abrasive homocysteine crystals, elevated blood pressure. high blood sugar, c reactive protein.

Blood pressure in the Coronary Arteries is MOST FORCEFUL, IT ALSO IS THE PLACE THAT GETS THE MOST FREQUENT AND SEVERE ATHEROSCLEROSIS out of all the arteries.
