10 Signs You’re Living With Clogged Arteries

Clogged arteries are a dangerous business. They can cause many health issues, the most dangerous of those being high blood pressure and heart attack.

But how do you figure out that your arteries might be clogged before things get bad or need medical intervention? Pay attention to your body: These are the signs of clogged arteries that you might not be noticing.

10 Warning Signs of Clogged Arteries

Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood throughout your body. They carry this blood to your brain, to all the major and minor organs of your body, to your muscles, and even all the way down to the tips of your fingers and toes.

In healthy arteries, the blood flows freely through them because they have smooth walls and are free of obstructions.

Clogged arteries, however, have built-up plaques on their walls. These plaques reduce blood flow and can even block it altogether, leading to a heart attack.

Knowing the Signs

Knowing the early signs of clogged arteries is crucial to resolve the problem before it poses such a significant risk to your health.

Thankfully, you can improve clogged arteries with some simple diet and exercise interventions.

If they are quite heavily clogged or you have a family history of heart problems, your doctor may also put you on some medications to help keep your arteries in check.

If you have any of these ten warning signs of clogged arteries, see your doctor right away to come up with a plan to improve them.
