On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley – the “King of Rock” – passed away at the age of 42 at his Graceland mansion. His sudden death shocked the world and left many questions unanswered. For 50 years, the results of Elvis’s autopsy were kept secret by his family, fueling public curiosity about the true cause of his death.
Recently, medical experts have revealed shocking details from Elvis’s autopsy. It was found that Elvis had suffered from chronic constipation for four months prior to his death. This condition was believed to be caused by an unhealthy lifestyle, poor diet, and years of drug abuse. One contributing factor to his death was the phenomenon known as “Valsalva’s maneuver” – excessive strain during bowel movements leading to compression of the abdominal aorta and cardiac arrest.
Additionally, the autopsy revealed that Elvis had severe infections, hepatitis, gastric ulcers, and liver problems. He also suffered from diabetes and hypertension. Contrary to his image as a healthy rock star on stage, Elvis faced numerous serious health issues in his final years.
With the release of Elvis’s autopsy results after 50 years, the public now has a clearer understanding of the true cause of his death. This not only answers questions that have lingered for half a century but also serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unhealthy lifestyles and drug abuse.
