Dairy products have a lot of saturated fat, especially cream, butter, clarified butter (ghee), paneer, and cheese, all popular in India.

  This is true but not necessarily related as saturated fat is no longer considered strongly related to heart disease. Arterial plaques are blood clots, not fat deposits.

    Also read something casually that (I am suspecting probably falsified but a new one at least) that plastics were found in a lot of cardiovascular deposits following autopsies.

    I don’t have the capability to verify Wikipedia, but right now it says: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheroma https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheroma > The material consists of mostly macrophage cells,[3][4] or debris, containing lipids, calcium and a variable amount of fibrous connective tissue. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atherosclerosis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atherosclerosis > Risk factors include abnormal cholesterol levels, elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers,[11] high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking (both active and passive smoking), obesity, genetic factors, family history, lifestyle habits, and an unhealthy diet.[4] Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood.[9] If the above is true, then are the aforementioned lipids, cholesterol, and fat not affected by fat consumption, specifically saturated fat?
