Cholesterol does not block your windpipe. If your windpipe is blocked, there is another cause. It could be Asthma, infection, or a tumor. It could be something else. Excess cholesterol blocks your arteries. That cuts off your blood flow. Sometimes when it cuts off your blood flow, it keeps your heart from getting enough blood so that part of the muscle in your heart does not get blood and oxygen. That is called a heart attack. If not treated real soon, your heart muscle dies. You may die. If it cuts off blood to your brain, it is called a stroke. Again, you may or may not have enough time to get it treated. Of course, if it cuts off blood to the place in your brain that controls heart beat or breathing, you die. Then cholesterol plugs also break off and clog arteries and cause the same problems. Still, they are not the problem in your wind pipe.
