 Wonderful fact of the day about James Henry Salisbury (yes, his namesake is the Salisbury steak!): 

This guy was one of the OG carnivore doctors (I think he might have been the first in U.S.) who believed meat was the main thing humans needed to eat, eschewing most everything else (or at least, thinking other foods were unnecessary but not harmful, sparingly). He also believed the reason Civil War soldiers suffered scurvy was due to the lack of fresh meat available in the bases, not from lack of fresh fruits & vegetables (look it up, please).
