Message 21073671 i'm sure others have studied the low lipid levels of the masai despite their high cholesterol diet...may take some time to research the findings, and they may be difficult to access... don't think the Masai are probably the paradox some people might think they are. Interesting lives they lead, though- intense, and short. i for one would not go so far as to say that...even though the average life span is mid 40's, i'm thinking that a study could be made of the masai who live to be much older... infant mortality and HIV figure prominently in the low life expectancy, as well as injury... My dad had his heart attack at 63- and like the Masai, he didn't eat veggies and lived on meat (and the occasional potato). like the masai???? i find that a dubious assertion the fact that he was a heavy meat eater, would not make him 'like the masai' for example did he eat margarine? or prepared baked goods ? 'he lived on meat' did he ever eat a hamburger on a bun?? he may not have eaten veggies but if he consumed any trns fats found in packaged foods you could hardly equate his diet as 'like the masai'
