Thanks for the response, Leonie. That is likely a factor, yes, but it seems
like there should be something alkalizing to offset the acid-forming lean
meat.
Your suggestion got me thinking some more and I thought, what if there are
alkaline organs in animals? I searched the net and did find one mention of
alkaline organs:
Vitality for You! (Vitalstoffkur): The RayonexR Treatment with Vital
Substances

"The digestive organs, particularly the liver, gall bladder, colon and small
intestines, depend upon a alkaline milieu. Therefore, they are sometimes
called the alkaline organs."
Does anyone know if this is true, and could animal organs (perhaps raw
particularly) be the source of alkaline-forming foods for traditional Inuit
and carnivores in general? Granted, alkaline does not necessarily mean
alkaline-forming, but it seems like a possible answer.
Also, human blood is slightly alkaline, so I'm guessing that the blood of
other animals is also slightly alkaline.
