Yes it
irritates the endothelium lining as well as all other oils, if you want to reduce plaque in the arteries ALL oils need to be eliminated.
When irritated plaque adheres to the location and builds/blocks from there over several years.
Image shows the lining inside a blood vessel wall, they are only one cell in thickness and very fragile when exposed to oil.
Vascular endothelial cells line the entire circulatory system, from the heart to the smallest capillaries.
These cells have very distinct and unique functions that are paramount to vascular biology.
These functions include fluid filtration, such as in the glomeruli of the kidney, blood vessel tone, hemostasis, neutrophil recruitment, and hormone trafficking. Endothelium of the interior surfaces of the heart chambers are called endocardium.
Dr's Esseltyn and Ornish agree on this, I personally have benefited by eliminating oil from my diet in 7 months - big changes.
