Plaque Twist: Rather Be Safe Than Sorry

Plaque Twist: Rather Be Safe Than Sorry An advocacy by XUJRPSM - SGD 13 dedicated to raising awareness and preventing atherosclerosis for a healthier you.

๐ŸŽฌ Before the "Plaque Twist" takes over, take control.

From skipped meals to stress, from v**es to late nights โ€” the twist begins silently. But the good news? You can untwist it.

This short, informative video by XUJPRSM SGD 13 is a reminder that heart health starts long before symptoms appear. Through everyday campus moments, we explore how small lifestyle choices can shape the future of our health.

We dive into the silent story of atherosclerosis and show how awareness, not negligence, is the first step to prevention.

Because awareness today can protect your heart tomorrow.
And when it comes to your health, you'd .

โ€œWhich of these lowers the risk of atherosclerosis?โ€
Correct Answer: Eating more vegetables!

According to Saita, Kondo, and Momiyama (2015), oxidative stress plays a significant role in the development of atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary artery disease (CAD), which has led to increased attention on antioxidant-rich foods.
Numerous epidemiological studies show that a higher intake of fruits and vegetables is associated with a reduced risk of these conditions. In particular, green and yellow vegetables are rich in carotenoids, polyphenols, and antioxidant vitamins C and E โ€” powerful nutrients that help fight oxidative stress.

๐ŸŽฌ He looked healthy. He felt fine.
But sometimesโ€ฆ the warning signs donโ€™t shout โ€” they whisper.

Atherosclerosis doesnโ€™t always begin with dramatic symptoms.
It often starts quietly โ€” shaped by the everyday choices we make.

Question: Which lifestyle change helps prevent atherosclerosis the most?
Correct Answer: QUITTING SMOKING ๐Ÿšญ๐Ÿ’ฅ

According to Gambardella et al. (2017) in Atherosclerosis, smoking isnโ€™t just bad for your lungs โ€” itโ€™s a direct hit to your arteries too. Cigarette smoke contains highly oxidative and inflammatory compounds that can:
๐Ÿงฌ Damage the endothelium
๐Ÿ“ˆ Exacerbate hypertension
๐Ÿ’ฃ Disrupt lipid metabolism (hello, high LDL!)

So if you want to outsmart atherosclerosis? Put that cigarette down. That includes other products like v**e too!

AND THATโ€™S A WRAP FOR THIS ROUND!
You guessed it โ€” the correct answer is the MEDITERRANEAN DIET!

Backed by Jimenez-Torres et al. (2021) Mediterranean diet, especially when enriched with extra virgin olive oil โ€” showed significantly reduced progression of atherosclerosis, thanks to decreased carotid intima-media thickness (IMT-CC) and carotid plaque height.
