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:

Well aren’t Twinkees good for 10,000 years

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.

If you are interested in the human race from a genetics perspective, check out The Insight podcast, I listen to it on my longer workouts and they do a great job with laying out what we know and apply it to a wide variety of topics.
