Organ Damage (Heart and other blood vessels)ARTERIES:Arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries, especially in the heart, kidney , legs, and brain). Atherosclerosis (fat accumulation and narrowing of the arteries, causing chest pain, heart failure, kidney failure, stroke, etc; and Aneurysms. Over time the arteries become scarred, narrowed, hardened and less elastic.HEART:Increased risk for disease of the blood vessels of the heart (Coronary Artery Disease), & enlarged left side of the heart , causing heart attacks, heart failure, and sudden death.BRAIN:Increased risk of stroke due to the blood vessel disease, TIA (mini stroke) due to atherosclerosis or blood clot, dementia, and loss of mental function.KIDNEY:May lead to kidney failure due to damage to the arteries, or to aneurysms which may cause severe internal bleeding.EYE:Eye blood vessel damage can lead to retinopathy, damage to optic nerve, and fluid build up under the retina causing bleeding, blurred vision and loss of vision.
Other Effects:• Sexual Dysfunction• Bone Loss• Trouble sleeping due to sleep apnea

Potentially pro-inflammatory,
Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) can lead to a buildup
of cholesterol in the arteries. It is called the
“BAD CHOLESTEROL”. The higher the LDL level in your
blood, the greater chance you have of getting heart
disease.
Potentially anti-inflammatory, High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are also known as “GOOD CHOLESTEROL”.It helps remove cholesterol from your body, so the higher your HDL, the lower your chance for getting heart disease.
