Subject: Re: Eskimo health and nutrition
The recent thread about nutrition has been very interesting and helpful!
Many thanks to those who have been sharing their extensive research and
experience.

It does give me an appetite, though, for what information/data/statistics
there are about Eskimos (not known for their gardening tips or salad
recipes) and the ingredients of their health (cancer, heart, stroke, other
disease rates, cholesterol levels, stamina, longevity, or lack of) with
regards to their rather extreme diet and living conditions. Is there a
snowball's chance in hell that anyone give us, in a nutshell so to speak, a
few bytes about how they fit into the nutritional scheme of things?

If the answer is "Well, they're different", then I'd say "Inuit."

But seriously, what have researchers cooked up about them?

TIA.
