A longtime friend of mine suddenly died of a heart attack while using the bathroom at home. I wondered: What caused his heart attack, and why did it come on so suddenly and viciously? How should we deal with this disease? Can diet help us to reduce the risk of heart disease?

My friend was a wonderful person who took his work very seriously. He became busier as he got better at his job and was promoted to higher positions, often working until very late at night. When I visited him at his home, I often noticed the presence of bread, instant noodles, and all kinds of snacks piled up on the table.
