The leading cause of death in America nearly had another victim. His heart stopped, he had stents inserted to open severely clogged arteries, and ultimately needed open heart bypass surgery.

The transformation that came next was nothing short of remarkable. It was a complete diet and lifestyle overhaul that eradicated more than 60 years of unhealthy habits.
