“…Atherosclerosis or coronary artery disease is a condition characterized by deposits of lipids, mainly cholesterol on the inner walls of the arteries (Ghasi et al, 2002;Ugwu et al, 2013;Olantunji et al, 2005;Ezekwesili et al, 2008). These deposits narrow the arterial channels and partly block the normal flow of blood through them (Ahman et al, 1992;Ugwu et al, 2013;Ghasi et al, 2002;Olantunji et al, 2005;Ezekwesili et al, 2008).…”
