Traditional Inuit suffered from no chronic diseases.

The idea that traditional Inuit were completely free of chronic diseases, particularly cardiovascular disorders, is scientifically inaccurate. A CT scan imaging study published in 2019 in JAMA Network Open by the Horus Study Group analyzed 16th-century Greenlandic Inuit mummies. The researchers discovered clear signs of arterial plaque accumulation in three out of four adults, despite their traditional diet very rich in fish omega-3s. Furthermore, a research review conducted by the University of Ottawa (Fodor et al., 2014) refuted the hypothesis of a natural Inuit immunity against heart problems, showing historical rates of coronary disorders comparable to those of Western populations. Epidemiological data even indicate a historically high susceptibility to strokes within these communities. Thus, the claim of a total absence of chronic diseases in these people is not based on any solid scientific evidence and is contradicted by history.
