Click to ENLARGE. For U.K. ‘Daily Mail’ original.

I had never heard of him, nor (thankfully) his meals, prior to reading the above story, in the U.K. ‘Daily Mail‘, this morning. It was so incongruous, given his young age, that I had to look into it. 45 (& it is possible that he might actually have been 43) is young to die from a heart attack. I know folks who have had heart attacks at that age, including a first cousin, but they all lived to tell the tale. Yes, I know that each heart attack is different & any one can get one, at any ‘adult’ age, irrespective of physical fitness, conditioning or diet.

Appears he was obese before going on a health/diet kick. (Smile) I can relate to that.

There are pictures of him in the ‘Daily Mail’ article — one as recently as last month. To be honest he doesn’t look that well. He does not have the face of a thin man.

There is also a picture of one of his signature dishes. Small portions — but one v. full cup of rice! Carbs. Carbs kill.

Well, I hope folks look in to this. I am curious as to whether he saw a doctor on at least a yearly basis for a physical. I gather that folks are lackadaisical about physicals in the U.K. — & he probably thought he was still too young. Would be interesting to learn what his cholesterol was. You would think that if he was pushing healthy foods as much as he was doing he would publicize his health stats.

Well, it is a shame. But, alas, we don’t know the whole story. A pity he didn’t have the doctors I had at his age.

    The big question is whether Gurpareet Bains had been vaxxed and if so, whether there was a causal relationship for his heart attack.

    A number of vaccinated athletes have been dying of heart attacks. Before widespread vaccinations there was maybe one per year, maybe a high school basketball player. And we accepted it as a freak accident peculiar to the individual.

    What do you think? Was Gurpareet Bains ever vaccinated?

      Yes, the possible link to COVID did also cross my mind. Just a couple of hours ago I was thinking that I need to go see if there is any new news about his death. I did NOT see anything about COVID or vaccines. He was in the UK. Not too many ‘anti-vaxxers’ over there (from what I know), PLUS it is the NHS. But, I will look. What I was curious was whether they knew if he had medical conditions. I still come across folks in Maine having heart attacks, in the 50s, & THEN, for the 1st time finding out that they have 400+ cholesterol counts. That amazes me. Or a very successful CEO, who at 60+, discovered he was pre-diabetic (now diabetic) on HIS 1st glucose/A1C test. I guess, I have been lucky. Doctors have been harassing me about yearly tests since I was about 35. THANKS. I will look into this. All the best. Anura
