Your arteries aren’t just pipes—they're living tissue. Blockages begin with endothelial (cells lining your arteries) injury, not just cholesterol!
Bad lifestyle—junk food, stress, smoking, poor sleep—damages the inner lining of arteries, triggering inflammation and plaque buildup.
Surprisingly, excessive or intense exercise without recovery can also stress the endothelium, especially if you're already inflamed.
Protect your heart: aim for balanced workouts, anti-inflammatory foods, and stress management.
It’s not just about how hard you push—it's how well you recover and care for your body.
