Further to this post, if you look at the content of seal blubber
(http://www.westonaprice.org/traditional_diets/native_americans.html), you
will notice that most of it is composed of monosaturates (~12 : 60%, sat to
mono fats). Eating loads of saturated fat in order to try and emulate the
inuit's diet may be then potentially hazardous?

I guess I mean by "done right" is that if the whole animal is not eaten
(look at
http://www.westonaprice.org/traditional_diets/native_americans.html )
including guts (...full of half-fermented, half-digested grass and herbs...)
then a diet heavily focused on saturated fats without any intake of foods to
compensate for grasses and herbs, followed over a prolonged period, can lead
to cancer or heart disease. That's my concern...
