Sorry to hear about your heart attack. Did you have a bypass or was a valve problem? Bypass operations work really well fortunately. Unlike cancer which doesn't have as a good a solution. We were hoping, still hope that Bavi would change that. Heart disease and cancer are the two top killers. Stroke. also caused by plaque, is another big killer.

Unwittingly, I went the route of prevention as far as heart disease and strokes go. I started taking 500-1000 mg of vitamin C in 1982-3. My cholesterol then, the firs time I got it checked, was 305. Never took statins and my cheolesterol was almost always very high. I was worried about my high cholesterol and my Dr prescribed statins for me a few times which I never took.About fifteen years ago, one of my Primary care doctors had me do a heart scan which showed that I had zero plaque. He then had me do a carotid ultrasound which also showed no plaque. Last year, I had another carotid ultrasound and the doctor was amazed that at my age, 63, I had no plaque at all.

According to some, the cause of plaque is lesions which develop in weak arterial walls because of lack of vitamin C. These lesions are sealed with cholesterol, calcium in order to prevent leaks. Read what Dr Rath says about it here. He wrote the book Why Animals Don't Get Heart Attacks But People Do.

As far as cancer, we don't have good choices right now. But there is a way to make chemotherapy safer just by fasting for three days before you have it done. Probably, it won't work for everybody but it's worth considering, I think.

“This (a fasting-like diet) could be a very inexpensive way to make a wide range of cancer cells more vulnerable to an attack by the immune cells, while also making the cancer more sensitive to the chemotherapy,” said Longo.
Previous work had shown that a short-term fast starves cancer cells and facilitates the chemotherapy drugs to better target them. Also, a low-calorie, fasting-like diet can slow the progression of multiple sclerosis by killing “bad cells” and generating new healthy ones."
