Dr. Weston A. Price DDS
Dr. Price was a Cleveland dentist, who has been called the “Charles Darwin” of Nutrition. Searching for the causes of dental decay and physical degeneration he observed daily in his dental practice, he turned from test tubes and microscopes to study “people with fine teeth” — the isolated “primitives”.

Traveling worldwide, Dr. Price found that beautiful, straight teeth, freedom from decay, stalwart bodies, resistance to disease, and fine characters were typical of primitives on their traditional diets.

These primitives stand forth in sharp contrast to those subsisting on the “impoverished foods of civilization” — sugar, white flour, pasteurized milk, and convenience foods filled with extenders and additives.

His worldwide findings clearly showed that dental caries and deformed dental arches, resulting in crowded, crooked teeth and unattractive appearance, were merely a sign of physical degeneration, resulting from what he had suspected — nutritional deficiencies.

Dr. Price’s classic volume, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, is published by and available from the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation (Click Here to purchase). *Its photographs illustrate in an unforgettable way the physical degeneration that occurs when human groups abandon nourishing traditional diets in favor of modern convenience foods.

Price travelled the world over in order to study isolated human groups, including sequestered villages in Switzerland, Gaelic communities in the Outer Hebrides, Eskimos and Indians of North America, Melanesian and Polynesian South Sea Islanders, African tribes, Australian Aborigines, New Zealand Maori and the Indians of South America. Wherever he went, Dr. Price found that beautiful straight teeth, freedom from decay, stalwart bodies, resistance to disease and fine characters were typical of primitives on their traditional diets, rich in essential food factors.

When Dr. Price analyzed the foods used by isolated primitive peoples he found that they provided at least four times the calcium and other minerals, and at least TEN times the fat-soluble vitamins from animal foods such as butter, fish eggs, shellfish and organ meats.

The importance of good nutrition for mothers during pregnancy has long been recognized, but Dr. Price’s investigation showed that primitives understood and practiced preconception nutritional programs for both parents. Many tribes required a period of premarital nutrition, and children were spaced to permit the mother to maintain her full health and strength, thus assuring subsequent offspring of physical excellence. Special foods were often given to pregnant and lactating women, as well as to the maturing boys and girls in preparation for future parenthood. Dr. Price found these foods to be very rich in fat soluble vitamins A and D nutrients found only in animal fats.

These primitives with their fine bodies, homogeneous reproduction, emotional stability and freedom from degenerative ills stand forth in sharp contrast to those subsisting on the impoverished foods of civilization-sugar, white flour, pasteurized milk and convenience foods filled with extenders and additives.

An extract from Dr. Weston A. Prices work “Nutrition & Physical Degeneration.”

–Published in the late 30’s, the work is a detailed account of Price’s travels to all parts of the world that were still ‘primitive’ and subsisting on their natural diet, documenting their state of health and contrasting it with those who were consuming ‘modernized’ food.

*Topics Discussed on Part 1 of 4:

-The importance of Animal Fats in our diet.

-Sacred Food among American Indians: Bear Fat

-Crop Pesticide Applications are Estrogen’s (Hormones)–causing early on set of puberty–DES Hormone implicated

-Estrogens occour naturally in soy–insects that come into contact with these estrogens becomes sterile

-Genetically Modified (GM) Soy developed so that more herbicides could be sprayed on the crop–GM Soy is much higher in Tripsin Inhibitors (inhibit Protein Digestion)—very hard to eliminate Tripsin from Soy: can cause pancreatic, digestive problems, protien deficiencies, etc…

-Aprox. 85-90% of all Soy is GM and sprayed

-Misconceptions about the Asian Diet–Japan: Avg. Soy consumption is about 10 g’s a day (2 tsps.)–mostly fermented soy, or a little tofu eaten with a fish broth that counteracts particular mineral blocking agents—is not used to replace Animal Foods—-Japan: AVG consumption of Fish is 150 pounds per person per year; almost half a pound a day—–1960s China Survey: 65% of the calories in the chinese diet is from Pork (includes: Lard)

-Soy: When used traditionally is almost always fermented and used in great moderation

-Soy Protein Isolate: found in almost every ‘health’ nutrion bar, etc..

-Soy Protien Isolate: most of it is made by Dupont: owners of Technology International; the same people who are producing all of these pesticides

-Soy Protein Isolate: is the worst Excito Toxin, causes the brain neurons to trigger over and over and over until they fatigue–produces a drug like response/effect

Part 1.

Topics Discussed in Part 2 of 4:

-Soy Protein Isolate: is the worst Excito Toxin, causes the brain neurons to trigger over and over and over until they fatigue–produces a drug like response/effect

-MSG: billion dollar buisness–name is continually changing, ie: hydrolized protien, natural flavour, spices, artificial flavour

-Grass Fed Animals and Fat Soluble Vitamins A and D–Weston A Price’s findings—detoxifing pesticides, chemicals, etc

-Organic and Confinement Dairies–Dairy Cow in confinement: life-span is aprox. 42 months (almost 4 years), A cow out in Pasture: life-span is aprox. 10-12 years

-Alan Savory’s Work on brittle land (land with little rain fall)–hooves running over the land encourage grass to grow as long as it’s not over-grazed

-Slaughterhouses–organic and non-organic—USDA under pressure

-CJD related deaths

-Bovine problems (Prion Disorders) in the cows that were sprayed–Mark Purdy’s (sic?) work

-Proper methods of preparing Grains and Legumes

-Soy Formula for babies: is a disaster–whole foods baby formulas, breast milk from healthy mothers, etc

Part 2.

Topics Discussed in Part 3 of 4:

-Soy Formulas, when given to infants, the average baby will get 25-41 mg’s of Isoflaven’s–that is in the range that causes problems in women, in just a few months of feeding—caused pathological breast changes in the menstrual cycle in adult women

-Peurtorican Study: Soy Estrogen: was associated with premature development in the little girls–no good study about Soy Estrogen’s effect on little boys: anecdotelly, it seems to affect little boys in different ways: either very early on set of a masculine growth or a very retarded sexual development, very often: extreme emotional behaviour and learning disabilities: ADD

-Healthy Diet with the appropriate fats and nutrients that growing children need–Cod Liver Oil

-Cod Liver Oil: 1930’s, 1940’s Dr’s were reccomending two tea-spoons of Cod Liver oil for babies, starting at 3 months–Cod Liver Oil to help avoid learning disabilities in children—Cod Liver oil is synergistic with the Saturated Fats in Milk, Coconut Oil and need to be taken together

-Soy in the Marketplace: up into the 100’s of millions of dollars–worlds largest cash crop—80% of the partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in America is from Soy Oil—-what is left over after the Soy is extracted from the bean is a waste product (Soy Protein Isolate!)

-Mary Enig: Fat (Lipids) Researcher

-Book Section: Traditional Tonics and Superfoods: Fermented foods, milk tonics, etc…foods that concentrate nutrients–cod liver oil, yeast, glands, blue green algae, kelp

-Recipes: Flourless Carob Cake–Made with Eggs and Carob, with a natural sweetener

-Wheat Allergies, Wheat Gluten:Alfa-Glyidens (sic?) in Wheat are Protiens that are very hard to break down–two thing occuring here—leaky gut and verirritating types of proteins that can pas through the gut wall and even destroy the gut wall—-opinion: proper preperation of wheat (particularilly old fashion methods) makes it much more digestible—–Proper Preperation is: Soaking, sour levening, old fashioned sour-dough, etc…

-Commercial Soup’s Substitute Flavours are Excito-Toxins: base = hydrolized protein, another word for MSG–tasteless foods are dependent on MSG—”Long Shelf Life, Short Human Life”

Part 3.

-Ancient Preservation Methods will actually put more nutrients in the food: Lacto-fermentation, for example; old fashioned sour kraut–encourages growth of bacteria, which produce lactic-acid (a preservative) and during this process alot of nutrient content is increased: vitamin C, Mineral’s become more available, many toxins are neutralized—Lacto Fermented Fruits and Vegetables and Lacto-fermented Beverages

-Lactic Acid: can be derived from dairy sources, all vegetables have lactic-acid on them and in their juice–homemade whey: usable on vegetables as a preservative—how to get whey out, let yogurt seperate

-Spinach and Dark-Leafy Vegetables: Oxalic-Acid present, needs to be gotten rid of some how, traditionally is removed by cooking it–example: steamed lighly and eaten with pasture-fed butter, butter will supply you with Vitamin A and Vitamin D, the activators that help you absorb the minerals—or saute with onions and butter

-Nuts: lots of irritants and toxins present: can be neautralized by soaking the nuts in Salt Water, letting them drain and then dehydrating them in a warm oven

-Majority of Dairy intolerance is due to: animals eating wrong types of food, milk is pasteruized, doesn’t have enough fat in it–each one of these things makes the milk less and less digestible—examples of people who are able to drink Raw Milk even though they think that they have an intolerance to all milk

-Protein, B12, Vitamin A, etc for Vegetarians—Synthetic Vitamin A is toxic, true vitamin A is from an animal fat (probably fish oil)—-B12 is destroyed by pasteurization, present in: Raw Cheese, Raw Milk, Eggs, Meat—–Rabbit derives B12 from his droppings——2 types of vegetarian animals: 4 gut fermentors (ie: cow): get thier B12 from the die off of Protozoa in their gut and Hind Gut Fermentors (ie: rabbit) get their B12 from their droppings

A Documentary Film by Stephen Kroschel Awarded Honorable Mention in the Feature-Length Documentary Category 2006 New York International Independent Film and Video Festival Filmmaker, Stephen Kroschel, sets out to find hard evidence of the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy, a long-suppressed natual cancer treatment. His travels take him across both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, from upstate New York to San Diego to Alaska, from Japan to Holland and Mexico. In the end, he presents the testimony of patients, scientists, surgeons and nutritionists, who testify to the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy and shows the hard scientific evidence to back up their claims. The question that remains is, “Why is this powerful curative therapy still suppressed, more than 75 years after it was clearly proven to cure degenerative disease?”

Dr Richard Schulze spent 20 years treating people who were diagnosed with supposedly “Incurable Diseases” who had been given Death Sentences by their doctors, only to have most of his patients get well and then go on to outlive their doctors.

Why and how to make Rejuvelac, with Dr. Ann Wigmore. Narrated by Beth Overgaauw, from GrassyRootsTV.com.

In 1981 Rupert Sheldrake outraged the scientific establishment with his hypothesis of morphic resonance. A morphogenetic field is a hypothetical biological field that contains the information necessary to shape the exact form of a living thing. A presentation at the Biology of Transformation Conference in 2007.
