Explain how Atherosclerosis is impacted by 3 social determinants.

Tell how Atherosclerosis is impacted by 3 social determinants. One Social determinant has been provided for you . “ lack of proper nutrient/ food can lead to obesity“  For instance if you  mention that “too much fat will cause the lining of the arteries to not operate as well.”  that’s very vague not in specific pathophysiologic terminology. Instead, you need to discuss how obese individuals likely also have high cholesterol, particularly LDLs, along with hypertension which can then lead to endothelial injury. This injury is then the site for accumulation of LDL’s and progressive vessel damage (atherosclerosis) that further increases BP and leads to coronary and peripheral aterial diseases
