Gerry,

I was not aware of that.  Have you seen the work of Weston Price?  Even the
older Eskimos are shown with beautiful teeth, until their foods are replaced
with modern foods.  I was under the impression, not the belief, that even
these native Eskimoes with the amazing teeth had bone problems.  Can anyone
verify this issue?

The worst teeth I have seen thus far represented in one place was at the
macrobiotic conference (except maybe a nursing home).

Is it the truly native Eskimoes who have osteoperosis, or the new, modern
Eskimoes?

Either way, I recommend Price's book, if picture's are worth a thousand words,
be glad you don't have to read them!!!  Lots of great pictures!
