And, going out on a limb here, just a tad, EVERY POSSIBLE cause for a heart attack besides acute poisoning, is exacerbated by long-term stress.
TM helps manage long-term stress, and it is pretty much a given that his chances of survival would have gone up at least a little had he been doing TM regularly. The controversy concerns whether or not some other stress-management system might have had as good, or better, an effect.

But I think he ate a lot of cheese. And his job was stressful. I suggested that he begin doing just TM but he, God rest his soul, could be stubborn. Unless you have the detailed autopsy reports you won't know why he had a massive heart attack. It could have been clogged arteries or it could have been arterial fibrillation. It could have been an undetected heart valve problem, it could have been as a result of a bad combination of drugs, illicit or otherwise. When hearts stop you're dead but they can stop for lots of reasons. On Tuesday, July 1, 2014 1:20 PM, "Bhairitu noozguru@...

Regarding Dr. Rosenthal's comment about TM and heart disease at the beginning, I am convinced that if my SO had continued meditating--he quit in summer 2006--he would not have had a fatal heart attack 3 years later at the age of 46.
