    Another sad death from heart disease. In the book "The Cure for Heart Disease (and Cancer Too) I show the many recent scientific studies that forms of pyruvic acid (pyruvate) supplemented can help halt either heart disease, heart failure, etc. This author used it to very successfully treat his mortally threatening heart failure. No medicine, drug, supplement, surgery was of any use, but this method. Not thanks to top doctors, this method worked. Much the same story as that of Pax Beale, who went on to become a world class bodybuilding champ in his 60's and 70' after also suffering form heart failure at age 61. Lance Armstrong's foundation proved forms of pyruvate can also stop cancer. Amazing and true 600 page book available on Kindle for FREE on Sept 21, 2012.
