What do you say about Vilhjalmur Stefansson? Hernance (talk) 10:59, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Not a long-term study. He practiced a meat diet as an experiment for 1 year in a non-controlled study funded by American Meat Institute. Laboratory observations were only made at selected intervals. At the end of the year, he was given glucose water and orange juice and went back to an ordinary mixed diet. If you read the earliest reports written by researchers who made the observations on Stefansson, they were very clear in their conclusion "The diet was expensive, caused some social inconveniences, and was not one to be recommended for universal use" [1].
