I was wondering if someone could kindly repost the details of Stefansson's
all-meat diet. From what I gather, he survived quite well simply on muscle
meats. But how long did he actually stay on this diet? We're fond of
saying that the degenerative properties of the SAD diet are not always
immediately apparent, appearing only after decades of grain/dairy/sugar
consumption. For similar reasons, unless Stefansson was on his diet for
more than several years, are his conclusions really valid?

I'd be surprised if any h-g population with a meat-rich diet didn't
rely heavily on non-muscle meats - including blood, cartilage, bone and
stomach contents, as well as organ meats. Personally I don't think anyone
can really recommend an all-meat diet unless you are eating all of the
above.  On that note - does anyone have a list of the nutritional contents
of various non-muscle meats? I haven't seen too much discussion on this.
