Argue all you want guys. There have been several hundred studies done on this. And many more still being done.
As to the native americans of the far north, it should be noted that they eat alot of fish and other items from the sea. Their numerous current problems are well documented. The claims that they were once alot healthier in the good old days have not been properly documented.
I'll give you one example. Take a healthy japanese out of japan and away from his native eating habits, and he become just as over weight with our health problems as we are. Why ? Too much meat, fat and sugar. You can do the same with a rural chinese individual. That's because their diets are based on whole grains, like rice, and vegetables. E
