Coronary heart disease occurs when layers of fatty material build up inside coronary arteries, narrowing them and reducing blood flow to the heart, thus reducing oxygen supply to the heart.
La enfermedad de las arterias coronarias ocurre cuando capas de material graso se acumulan dentro de las arterias coronarias, estrechándolas y reduciendo el flujo sanguíneo al corazón, lo que disminuye el suministro de oxígeno al corazón.
