El colesterol LDL alto contribuye a la acumulaci\u00f3n de placa en las arterias con el tiempo, un proceso conocido como aterosclerosis, que puede restringir gradualmente el flujo sangu\u00edneo y aumentar el riesgo de eventos cardiovasculares graves como ataques card\u00edacos, accidentes cerebrovasculares y enfermedad arterial perif\u00e9rica. Debido a que este proceso se desarrolla silenciosamente durante muchos a\u00f1os, comprender c\u00f3mo el LDL afecta a las arterias es clave para reconocer y prevenir el da\u00f1o card\u00edaco a largo plazo.<\/p>\n

Seg\u00fan Dra. Natalia Beridze<\/a>, cardi\u00f3logo de Manhattan Cardiology en Nueva York, \u201cLa formaci\u00f3n de placa comienza con la acumulaci\u00f3n de part\u00edculas de colesterol LDL y primero progresa hacia placas grasas y blandas. Eso puede endurecerse con el tiempo hasta convertirse en placa dura, lo que provoca una reducci\u00f3n del flujo sangu\u00edneo\u201d. Explica que a medida que se acumula la placa, las arterias se estrechan y el flujo sangu\u00edneo se restringe, lo que aumenta el riesgo cardiovascular incluso antes de que aparezcan los s\u00edntomas.

High LDL cholesterol contributes to plaque buildup in the arteries over time, a process known as atherosclerosis, which can gradually restrict blood flow and increase the risk of serious cardiovascular events like heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease.
