I have a wonderful book (long out of print) called "Arctic Manual" written by Vilhjalmur Stefansson who was an early, cutting edge arctic explorer, 1910's 20's. Before leaving for a major expedition and clarify his previous findings of the northern diet Vilhjamur and a partner set out a dietary plan of nothing but animal protein and fat to simulate what they would be consuming on the ice pack. After one year of said diet they received a clean bill of health and headed north.

Another book with a more detailed account of Inuit dietary consumption back in the day is "Kabloona" by Gontran de Poncins. Brings a whole new meaning to the concept of sushi!
Suffice it to say the northern peoples were very healthy.
