Where did you get your data on disease and mortality in the Inuit population? I've read the exact opposite data in other places. Who is right? Obviously I cannot take either you or the other sources at their word.
I will prepare a more detailed answer once I had a chance to gather some references. But for now... The answer to your first question can be found in many college textbooks on human physiology. I will see if i can find some online sources for you to read, but if not I will have to refer you to the library and the specific books that I studied from.

Second one is much easier. Type "Inuit lifespan" in to Google and read the top 10 results. If you want the actual statistical data look here (you'll have to use the search function there to find census data and then run the numbers yourself). Statistics Canada

P.S. Btw... If you were simply pointing out that I didn't cite any references myself, then you right. It was my intention to demonstrate that the article was presenting information that can easily be disputed as fact.
