Before accepting the conclusion that Stefansson and Andersen
thrived, you should have a look at the following references:
McClellan WS, Rupp VR, Toscani V. Prolonged meat diets
with a study of the metabolism of nitrogen, calcium and
phosphorous. J Biol
Tolstoi E.The effect of an exclusive meat diet on the
chemical constituents of the blood. J Biol Chem
1929;83:753-58.
