Heart disease is still the number one killer of both men and women in this country. Captain Belluardo has written a compelling story chronicling a 20 year journey of learning how to completely reversed heart disease by taking complete control of his healthcare following two open heart surgeries. During his journey of learning and research he uncovered the angiogenesis process allowing him to grow new arteries in his heart and replaced seven arterial bypasses. He treated the cause of heart disease and not the symptoms. He used the natural angiogenesis process to grow new arteries in his heart based on animal research and used himself as the animal test subject. No human researcher has ever attempted to force a human heart into ischemia for the purpose of growing new coronary arteries. The story also chronicles his motivation, a love of flying and how he learned to fly a real antique "stick & rudder" airplane. He had to prove to the Federal Aviation Administration with documentation that he had completely reversed his heart disease and pass all the required tests for issuance of an airman's medical certificate. The story contains lessons for the medical community, the aviation community, as well as the general public. This is a story that must be told to expose the truth about treating the cause of heart disease and not the symptoms.
