and blood so I'm told. We, the U. Nairobi Anthro. Club, visiting
some Maasai in the Rift Valley (1972) were offered freshly drawn milk
in very wide shallow bowels. I didn't notice any rather old people,
and two teen agers ran alongside our bus for many minutes up the
mountain at 15? MPH. I am still impressed, even knowing of Kip
Keiano's Golds.

I just cheated, from Wiki.:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maasai
The Maasai herd goats and sheep, including the Red Maasai sheep, as
well as the more prized cattle.[50] Electrocardiogram tests applied
to 400 young adult male Maasai found no evidence whatsoever of heart
disease, abnormalities or malfunction. Further study with carbon-14
tracers showed that the average cholesterol level was about 50
percent of that of an average American. These findings were ascribed
to the amazing fitness of morans, which was evaluated as "Olympic
standard".[51]

The Masai in Africa traditionally ate mainly red meat and milk.
Talk about
cholesterol city! But they were extremely athletic, and you were
not a man
until you could jump your height according one anthropology book.
They did
not have an abnormal rate of heart disease.
