<em>Good Eats</em> host Alton Brown was rushed from the set of <a href="https://www.briansbelly.com/bar/viewtopic.php?t=170"><strong>Iron Chef America</strong></a> during a taping last week due to a heart condition.<br />
<br />
In his weblog, Alton states "the rumors of my death were greatly exaggerated." Stress, fatigue and dehydration were the culprits that threw his heart into arrhythmia.<br />
<br />
"So let’s recap," Alton says; "I am not dead. I did not have a heart attack. In fact I?ve seen an ultrasound of my heart and it looks darned fine. I just gotta get a little more sleep and I?ve got to lay off those espressos."<br />
<br />
We do not apologize for the banner headline however, as <a href="http://www.al.com/news/mobileregister/index.ssf?/base/news/1077723917312980.xml"><strong>Alton R. Brown Jr.</strong></a> (77) of Alabama recently passed away.<br />
