All the information they are finding from Otzi the Iceman, is just plain cool!

But although Ötzi’s fatty diet may have been an optimal way to get and keep enough calories to survive an energetic lifestyle in the frigid, high-altitude environment of the Alps, it may still have taken a toll on his health. A previous CT scan revealed that fatty deposits clogged several of Ötzi’s arteries in a condition called atherosclerosis.


I'm saying  it was Twinkies,.......... :dunno:

Amazing how many health issues and the possible cures and medicines they have identified he used.

The tattoos are intriguing, here is an article with an hypothesis the tattoos might be related to treatment for Lyme’s disease. With a rendering of what he may have looks like.
