Fast-food breakfast sandwiches could be “a time bomb in a
bun”—and eating even one fat-laden morning meal has immediate adverse effects
on your arteries, according to a new study presented at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress meeting
in Toronto.
A
high-fat diet is linked to increased risk for atherosclerosis (narrowing of
arteries due to plaque deposits), but the study suggests that damage that could
lead to a heart attack or stroke may start sooner than was previously thought.
Just one day of
eating a fat-laden breakfast sandwich–such as egg, cheese and ham sandwich on
a bun – and "your blood vessels become unhappy," said Heart and
Stroke Foundation researcher Dr. Todd Anderson, director of the Libin
Cardiovascular Institute of Alberta and head of cardiac science at the
University of Calgary in a statement.
