Studies in the 1970's showed that Greenland Eskimos had a lower rate of heart disease than did other individuals living in Greenland at the same time. Analysis of dietary differences between the groups showed that the Eskimos ate less saturated fat and more omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, whale and seal meat. Doctors recommend at least two weekly servings of fish in omega-3 fatty acids, preferably mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, and salmon.
