Low Carb Down Under podcast

Risk of clotting increased when a plaque ruptures...
Plaques are usually stable surrounded by thick tissue
Here is UNSTABLE PLAQUE...What is the cause?

One reason: foam cells [cholesterol-stuffed macrophages]
-secrete enzymes that break down the protective tissue

23 types of these enzymes in humans: [number 9 is critical]
-in high levels, it's an independent predictor of cardiac mortality
"Do triglycerides; HDL have anything to do with this? YES

Here is blood vessel lined with fine hairs [glycocalyx]...
-protection against clotting: shields wall against coagulation
-blocks formation of abnormal clots
-produces nitric oxide [dilates vessels]

Oxidized LDL can damage this glycocalyx!
