      This study supports the work of Lindeberg and Lundh some 25 years ago. They found no evidence of CHD or stroke among the natives of Kitava. They also reported no evidence of CHD and stroke in all of Papua New Guinea. Eaton et al, also reported the rarity or absence of CHD and stroke in the Solomon Islands, PNG, Kalahari bushmen, and Congo pygmies.

      Lindeberg and Lundh, Apparent absence of stroke and ischaemic heart disease in a traditional Melanesian island: a clinical study in Kitava, Journal of Internal Medicine 1993; 233: 269-275.

      Eaton, Konner, Sostak, Stone agers in the fast lane: chronic degenerative diseases in evolutionary perspective. The American Journal of Medicine, 1988; 84;, 739-749
