Any Tasteless/odorless Chemicals To Induce Heart Attack With Pre-existing Heart Condition?

Are there any types of tasteless and odorless chemicals that can be used over time to ultimately induce a heart attack in someone with a pre-existing heart condition? Can this be detected upon death via an autopsy? We believe that this may have happened to our brother who was just 5-days away from completion of a highly contentious divorce, likely in a honey-ginger tea concoction. Thanks.

In my knowledge, there is no such chemical which can induce heart attack. If you suspect foul play in your brothers death then it will come out in autopsy report. Don't worry.
