Coming up on today's show.

Nobody has liver attacks, kidney attacks.

They have heart attacks and brain attacks called strokes.

No other organ has attacks, even though the blood is the same and the arteries are the same,

which led me to think it's got to do with the organ, not the blood supply.

You don't have to know what's true in order to know what's not true. That is a

All you have to prove is you weren't there. We've proven that that's not the cause of heart attacks. I didn't know what was, but eventually that became clear that it has to be something to do with the heart

and the brain, not the blood vessels.

I know there's no atoms, I know blocked arteries don't cause heart attacks, I know viruses

don't exist, I know all those things for sure, it doesn't mean that I know what causes

somebody to be sick.

I don't know who killed that guy.

I know it wasn't me.

That's called thinking.

Tom, right now in the world, the number one cause of death is cardiovascular disease.

What is actually the cause of that?

Well, the number one cause of cardiovascular, the number one type of cardiovascular disease is in the realm of

angina, unstable angina, and heart attacks. So there's a lot of other kinds of heart disease,

like congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation and

SVT and a lot of other things. But most people, when they're referring to heart disease, they're
