And by the way, being an omnivore also means that you can eat and be healthy by only eating plants. For example, did you know that if you have heart disease, diabetes, MS, obesity, fatty liver disease and even some cancers, eating ONLY a balanced diet of plants will reverse the disease process? But a high meat diet will kill you. The average age of mortality for the Inuit of Northern Canada and Greenland is around 68 which is 13 years sooner than their peers in Southern Canada and wherever autopsies have been done (even in the case of accidental deaths) the dead show signs of significant heart disease.

You really have to consider the social determinants of lifespan, including poverty, mainly, but recent cultural anhilation is almost certainly a significant factor as well. We have similar lifespan issues of Aboriginals in Australia, confounded by a range of determinants including addiction, mental health and a range of statistically disproportionate social problems.
