Hi,
when there is calcification (thickening of arteries due to fat and salt deposition) of the arteries, supply of oxygen rich blood to the heart gets blocked resulting in straining of the heart called as heart attach. this results in failure of the heart, in which the heart cant pump the required amount of blood the body needs.
