{blacktriangledown} Maxepa - eskimos, fish oils and ischaemic heart disease
Greenland eskimos eat as much fat as North Americans, but a far greater proportion of it contains unsaturated fatty acids from marine food and they have less ischaemie heart disease (IHD) than North Americans.1,2 Some,3,4 but not all epidemiological studies,5,6 suggest that eating fish regularly red...
