Zitat englische Wikipedia:

"Modern population studies have shown that Inuit share similar rates of heart attacks as the rest of the world, and nearly twice the risk of strokes.[100] Another study found a correlation between the Westernization of local diets and an overall decrease in mortality from ischaemic heart disease in Inuit populations.[101]

The Inuit have lifespans 12 to 15 years shorter than the average Canadian's, which is thought to be influenced by factors such as their diet[100] and limited access to medical services.[102] The life expectancy gap is not closing.[102][103][104] Furthermore, fish oil supplement studies have failed to support claims of preventing heart attacks or strokes.[105][106][107]"
