Interesting how the news media is portraying Bob Harper's heart attack. Calling him a health and exercise guru and blaming the heart attack completely on bad genetics. On the national news they even interviewed a cardiologist from the prestigious Cleveland Clinic who basically said sometimes there is nothing you can do if you have bad genes.
Bob Harper Suffers Serious Heart Attack
"Bob -- a fitness nut -- says the heart attack is all genetics. His mom died from a heart attack."
Here's a diet he was promoting and probably eats similar himself.
Fat
.30 (30% fat) x 2000 (daily calorie goal) = 600 kcals / 9 (there are 9 calories in every gram of fat = 66.6 grams of fat per day
Carbohydrates
.30 x 2000 = 600 kcals / 4 (there are 4 calories in every gram of carbohydrates) = 150 grams of carbohydrates per day
Protein
.40 x 2000 = 800 kcals / 4 (there are 4 calories in every gram of protein) = 200 grams of protein per day
Good fats: avocados, seeds, egg yolks, dark meat chicken or turkey, nuts and nut butters.
Good carbohydrates: whole wheat or multigrain breads, brown rice, fruits, vegetables, and oats.
Protein: egg whites, lean chicken, lean turkey, lean beef, 0% Greek yogurt and tofu
