Hi:
A diet rich in butter combined with lack of aerobic activity
causes saturated triglycerides [triglycerides with all three
attached fatty acids being saturated] to be deposited in the
heart's blood vessels. This can lead to an angina or MI.
MI = Myocardial Infarction or heart attack
The symptoms of an angina/MI resulting from saturated
triglycerides of butter are similar except for the obvious
fact that MI is much more severe than an angina. MIs are
usually much more painful than anginas.
Both anginas and MIs produce the same type of pain [the
shooting sharp pain resulting from A-delta excitation].
However, the pain caused by an MI is usually more intense than
the pain caused by an angina because more A-delta nociceptors
per area are stimulated in an MI than in an angina.
When saturated triglycerides of butter accumulate in the
cardiac blood vessels, they starve the heart of blood supply.
That starvation of heart tissue result in stimulation of
A-delta nociceptors nearby. This causes a shooting sharp pain
to be perceived in the sternum's compact bones between the
3rd, 4th, and 5th cartilage lines of unions. It feels as if
those bones have "holes being cracked into them".
With or without pain, a heart attack is a potentially
fatal situation. However, the pain caused by A-delta
nociception can result in a shock reaction that can kill
in less than a minute.

If all the A-delta nociceptors that give rise to pain in the
hard compact bone tissues between the 3rd, 4th, and 5th
cartilage lines of unions of the sternum are stimulated by the
injurious complications of saturated butter triglycerides, the
intense shooting sharp pain would result in the following
fatal conditions:
In such a situation all blood vessels in the body would
constrict. The heart would enter a state of near-total
contraction [the contraction will be almost tonic, IOW nearly
a state of adiastole] and not relax enough to pump
effectively. The AV communication would probably remain normal
[i.e. other than being extremely fast and weak, the heartbeat
would be normal]. Pulse and heart beat would not be strong
enough to be felt by anything other than an extremely
sensitive EKG. Heart rate would sky-rocket to almost 500 beats
per minute.
Gastrointestinal muscles would also enter a state of tonic
spasticity [much like the heart and blood vessels]. The
peristalsis would be extremely rapid but so weak that the
movement of GI contents ceases.
Skin would become cold, pale, and moist due to shock.

Quotes from the above site:
"An A-delta fiber responds to either mechanical stimuli or
temperature stimuli in the painful realm and produces the
acute sensation of sharp, bright pain."
"By contrast, a C fiber can respond to a broad range of
painful stimuli, including mechanical, thermal or
metabolic factors. The pain produced is slow, burning, and
long lasting."
