Yes, excessive sugar intake can contribute to clogged arteries. High sugar consumption is linked to increased levels of triglycerides and harmful LDL cholesterol, both of which can lead to plaque buildup in the arteries. Additionally, sugar can promote inflammation and insulin resistance, further exacerbating cardiovascular risk. Therefore, a diet high in sugar may negatively impact heart health and increase the likelihood of artery blockage.
