About the author: Author: Dr. Blake F. Donaldson, MD
Basic Philosophy: Blake Donaldson was a New York Cardiologist in the 1920s. He needed his patients to lose weight, but after a year of unsuccessful results using traditional low-calorie diets, he looked for a reliable alternative. Using teeth as an indicator of body condition generally, and thus diet, he went to the Natural History Museum looking for specimens. He found remarkably good sets of teeth among skeletons dug up from Inuit Burial Grounds. He investigated Inuit diets, and consulted Dr Vilhjalmur Stefansson, who had lived with the Inuit, and had subsequently taken part in a year-long meat-only diet under close medical scrutiny. Donaldson became convinced that a meat-only diet was necessary for his patients, and began prescribing it, with great success.
Donaldson's stated philosophy was that "Continuous success in any line of endeavour, including weight loss, demands rigid adherence to biological laws…There are probably only two biologically perfect foods - fresh fat meat (i.e. meat with fat on it) and water". He considered the role of amino acids to be vital for the repair of damaged cells, and stated many times that fresh fat meat contains all 10 essential amino acids, as well as several non-essential ones. The quantities of food he prescribed were considered to be the minimum necessary to give the body the amount of these amino acids he calculated it requires.
