AC was an all around good guy, I seen him perform in person once, although I didn't get the chance to meet him. He was a nice guy but quite obese, he had like four chins. I think that his extremely heavy weight, much of which was fat, led to his heart problems as much or more than anything else.

I seem to doubt if you could contribute this to AS. The guy, as lifts has pointed out was extremely overweight and that alone puts tremendous stress on the heart. From what I have read about him, he was natural. I could be wrong, cause I personally did not know him.
