Huomasin. Alakarppaus on siitä mielenkiintoinen ravintokokeilu, että sen pitkäaikaisvaikutuksista ei ole juuri tutkimustuloksia. Niinpä rasvan käytössä alakarppaajat tekevät nyt itsellään aitoja ihmiskokeita. Tulokset nähdään joskus myöhemmin sairastuvuusluvuissa ja kuolleisuusluvuissa. Varmaan jotkin karppaustavat osoittautuvat terveellisemmiksi ja toiset epäterveellisemmiksi.

Tässä esimerkiksi pari lainausta ihmeteltäväksi. Kun diabetestä nykyään on alettu pitämään rasva aineenvaihdunnan häiriönä, niin mikä selitys tähän löytyisi. Ovatko inuitit voineet velä lisätä rasvan käyttöä. Näyttöä on jos haluaa nähdä.
Vilhjalmur Stefansson is also a figure of considerable interest in dietary circles, especially those with an interest in very low-carbohydrate diets. Stefansson documented the fact that most Inuit lived on a diet of about 90% meat and fish, often going 6-9 months a year on nothing but meat and fish--essentially, a zero-carbohydrate diet. He found that he and his fellow European-descent explorers were also perfectly healthy on such a diet. When medical authorities questioned him on this, he and a fellow explorer agreed to undertake a study under the auspices of the Journal of the American Medical Association to demonstrate that they could eat a 100% meat diet in a closely-observed laboratory setting for the first several weeks, with paid observers for the rest of an entire year. The results were published in the Journal of the AMA, and both men were perfectly healthy on such a diet, without vitamin supplementation or anything else in their diet except meat.[1]
Stefansson's personal papers and collection of arctic artifacts are maintained and available to the public at the Dartmouth College Library.
Stefansson is frequently quoted as saying that "adventure is a sign of incompetence."

Aboriginal people in Canada have a rate of diabetes that is three to five times higher than the general Canadian population. Aboriginal children are also now being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, a condition that in the past occurred mainly in older persons. Diabetes is an epidemic here in Canada to other Aboriginal people and researchers are worried that the same thing will happen to Inuit. Already a great increase of Diabetes is showing among Inuit. In 1991 a survey was conducted and Inuit had a rate of 1.9% of the population with diabetes. Then in 1999, a survey in Labrador concluded that Inuit in Labrador had a rate of 4% of the population had diabetes
