Time your next heart attack to conincide with national cardiology meetings

Surprisingly, high-risk patients with heart failure and cardiac arrest admitted to US teaching hospitals during dates of national cardiology meetings had lower 30-day mortality rates. The surprise is that outcomes improved despite the absence of the cardiologists who attended the meetings. While the cause of this correlation and the generalizability of the methodology are unclear, the finding is very significant. A Freakonomics podcast covering this study expressed the magnitude of this effect in a powerful comparison. While the combination of common interventions (beta-blockers, statins, aspirin, and blood thinners) reduce mortality risk by 2-3% in these patients, this effect reduced mortality risk by up to 10%. The Freakonomics podcast also entertainingly asks some cardiologists attending a cardiology meeting about the findings. The most compelling reason presented in the podcast to explain this effect is that the health professionals not attending national cardiology meetings use more conservative interventions during this time.

In this manner my colleague Wesley Virgin's autobiography starts in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL video.

You see, Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get anything they want.

These are the same SECRETS tons of celebrities (notably those who "became famous out of nowhere") and elite business people used to become rich and successful.

You've heard that you use less than 10% of your brain.

That's because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

Perhaps that expression has even taken place IN YOUR very own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head seven years ago, while driving an unlicensed, garbage bucket of a car without a license and $3.20 on his banking card.

"I'm absolutely frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! Why can't I turn myself successful?"

You've taken part in those thoughts, am I right?

Your success story is waiting to be written. You just need to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

Take Action Now!

(And actually, it has NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret exercise and absolutely EVERYTHING to do with "HOW" they are eating.)

P.S, I said "HOW", not "WHAT"...
