Normally I ignore the "rich and famous" obits, however Grant's passing is really quite upsetting. MythBusters meant a great deal to me during my college years, right as I was trying to figure out where I wanted to go in life. The build team was always the best.

With the loss of Jessie in 2019, it's been a hard year for Mythbusters.

Is there effective screening for aneurism potential? It runs the male side of my family and I'm approaching due time.

Vascular diseases like aneurism are reduced significantly on a plant based diet. Hope you get to read this before it gets downvoted to oblivion.

Why down vote this? People don't like vegetables?

I would love to see a documentary on this man, learn more about his life. I saw only his TV personality but the slim bio I just read suggests he had fascinating life and was kind as well.

It's threatening to their model of how health works. I suspect it's not just a down vote, it's a passionate button smashing one.

I was very pro meat and was researching counter arguments to my vegan mother in law when I, sadly, found out the science is about as contested as whether or not aliens have visited earth. I.e. a lot in the general populous but basically not at all in the bonefide nutritional science community.

Maybe because it's not plant-based, but vegan. We all eat plants - the difference is some don't eat anything else.

There are certain supplements, which can help with it [0], specifically:

* Alpha-lipoic acid

* Calcium

* Folic Acid (actually, Folate), Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, and Betaine

* Magnesium

* Omega-3 Fatty Acids

* Potassium

* Vitamin C

* Vitamin E

* Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)

* Selenium

* Bilberry

* Garlic

* Ginkgo

* Ginseng

* Turmeric
