They talk about 10% vs 11.4%... but those numbers are just what they're showing, in reality it's probably a lot worse than even that. There aren't much worse side-effects than "sudden death"!!!!

Even if it turns out that Gerry Ryan was apparently not on reductil at the time (he could very well have been taking it in secret, he was promoting the pill on his radio show for a long time), it could have caused permanent damage or a mini-stroke that only took its toll now. He spoke a lot about the side effects it had. He could also have been taking all sorts of other medications, weight loss pills etc. and an alcohol binge to finish him off.

People don't just drop dead in their 50s, not unless there is something extremely wrong with their lifestyles or they have taken something really dangerous.
denial?

i think we're all merely a breath from death!
