I've been asked to post this question on behalf of  Stan Angilley, the
author of:
"A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO DIABETIC NEUROPATHY TREATMENT" located
at: http://www.nsd.uib.no/yngve/helse/neuropat.shtml

We are seeking to get some idea of the daily intake of vanadium from
"natural" sources pre- and post-agricultural "revolution".

1) is it true that the major dietary source of vanadium for humans was
   unprocessed oils and animal fats?  if so how much and in what form?

2) the purported success of the ancient Roman treatment of diabetes:
   "gorge yourself on meat and fat every day"  would provide exactly how
    much vanadium and what form would this vanadium take?
