The correct answer is:

The person's risk of cardiovascular disease would increase.

Explanation:

High LDL cholesterol raises your risk for heart disease and stroke. Power gain. Many high-fat foods such as pizza, baked goods, and fried foods have a lot of saturated fat. Consuming too much fat can make you gain weight.
