A Swedish multi-center study led by researchers at Lund University shows a link between low fiber consumption and the presence of unstable or high-risk plaque in coronary arteries—the type of plaque that can trigger blood clots and cause heart attacks. The study also links dietary patterns to the composition of the plaques, i.e., how potentially dangerous they are.
