World renowned heart surgeon speaks out on what really causes heart disease

Misleading title linked to crap pseudoscience article.

"World renowned heart surgeon" - Hasn't had a medical license since 2008, and had 5 regulatory actions taken against him between 2000 and 2008 while working in Arizona (nowhere to be seen on the U.S. news ranking of top hospitals for heart surgery). Regulatory actions reflect poor practice of medicine.

"what really causes heart disease" - In his opinion. Some, but not all, of which has any relation to published scientific findings.

In addition, it looks like he has had financial and legal troubles and primarily hypes his views to sell products (books, supplements), like any huckster. You can tell when a scientist or doctor holds serious, well-founded views because s/he usually doesn't try to make a buck selling trinkets and scams.

Sounds a lot like what Tim Ferriss advocates in the 4-hour body book.

Would have been nice if they would have linked to supporting medical research though.
