001C9533 10 BIEN THRIVE ON DIET OF NOTHING I3UT BIEAT Beef and IIeef I'roducts and lVat- er Only Foods Taken by Famous Explorer and Friend During First Test I'eriod. Timid persons ivho shun red meat--and perchance fill them- selves full of starch instead- may be reassured ivhen they hear the story of tivo men ivho lived for iveeks on nothing but meat, and are still alive to tell the story! A juicy steak or a tender slice of roast beef once more may be regarded without the shudder in- spired of misguided medical ad- vice. Concluding an experimental period of 23 and 58 days respec- tively on a diet consisting entire- ly of fresh meat, Dr. Vilhjalmur Stefansson, famous Arctic ex- plorer, and his colleague, IZars- ten Andersen, report themselves as feling "energetic and ambi- tious and more anxious in the morning to get out of bed and work." The experiment was carried on at Bellevue Hospital in New York City under controlled con- ditions, to test a theory of Dr. Stefansson that an exclusive diet of meat--proved desirable in the Arctic--would be equally effici- ent in warmer climates. The ei~eriment was directed by the Russell Sage Institute of Pathology as part of the exten- sive studv of diets which it has b en carrying on for the last fif- teen years. This was an oppor- tunity for the institute to get information on the effects of an exclusive meat diet on heat pro- duction and blood pressure. Both explorers had lived for long periods on meat on their Arctic trips; but it was desired to test their ability to do so und- er perfect scientific control. Came Through in Fine Shape. Mr. Andersen began the diet on January 24; Dr. Stefansson on February 28. Both men have been eating and sleeping in the hospital; going out every after- noon for a ~valk accompanied by a member of the staff. At inter- vals they took two mile runs in Central Park. Each is in excellent physical condition at the present tiptoe. Dr. Stefansson, ten pounds over- weight when he began the ex- periment, tipping the scales at 159.5 pounds, trained down 1.0 150 lbs. And rsen, who iveigh- ed 132 lbs., gained a pound. The diet consisted solely of beef proJucts and water. The ex- plorers had the best cuts of beef, beef tongue, liver, brain and marrow. Tea was allowed at first, but this was stopped be- cause it was said to contain vita- mins. They also drank beef broth. Fat Needed AVith the I.ean "This was not a high protein diet," said Dr. Eugene F. DuBois in charge of the experiment. "Each man ate about four times as many fat calories as protein calories. At one time we attempt- ed to feed the subjects nothing but lean meat, but this caused digestion upsets, which were promptly relieved by substitut- ing fat for some of the lean. "On a typical day Mr. Ander- sen would eat nineteen ounces of lean and nine ounces of pure fat. Dr. Stefansson would eat fifteen ounces of lean and five ounces of fat. "No conclusions can be drawn at the present time regarding the advantages or disadvantages of a pure meat diet. All we can say is that these two men have been getting along solely on meat here in New York as well as they did in the Arctic." Lived Seven Years on Meat "There seems to be a deep- laid superstition among the pub- lic that a 100 per cent. meat diet is bad," said Dr. Stefansson. "Seven of the eleven years I spent in the Arctic I have lived entirely on meat. THE )VEST VAN NEEVS June 1, 1928. of such undertaking is the sum of $70,000.00.
