Is atherosclerosis the most important cause of heart failure deaths?
And atherosclerosis may not be the most common cause of a heart death. Autopsies of adults who had suffered sudden cardiac deaths found that the most common cause of heart deaths was not blockage of the coronary arteries, but arrhythmias.[5] As far as we know, arrhythmia is not caused by any dietary constituent, but by physical or mental stress.
