Eskimos lived on a traditionally 100% animal diet. Most likely our ancestors did too for 6 months of the year. When Weston Price looked at the Eskimos they had basically no heart disease.
That's because they died in their 30s and 40s, they also suffered from strokes and osteoporosis. The Eskimos were not a healthy civilization or a successful one either.
Utter lies. The average life expectancy was that low in all pre modern societies because infant mortality was high. The life span once you're past childhood is pretty much the same as today.
I'm not talking about now or the 1990s era, I'm talking back in the 1800s. Now they're much healthier due to westernisation and the introduction of plant foods rich in vitamins and minerals.
Their high meat diet was so unhealthy that their health actually improved on a Standard American diet (S. A. D)
