<\/a>Nutrition and Physical Degeneration![\"\"](\"http:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=reafoohou-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0916764206\")
<\/em><\/strong> by Dr. Weston A. Price<\/p>\nThe visual evidence in this book is jaw-dropping and convincing.\u00a0 I think that every medical and dental school should include it in required reading. As stated in the Prologue to the book, “Dr. Price’s research proved\u00a0conclusively that dental decay is caused primarily by nutritional deficiencies, and that those conditions that promote decay also promote disease.”\u00a0 His research showed that primitive diets “shared several underlying characteristics.\u00a0 None contained any refined or devitalized foods such as white sugar and flour, canned foods, pasteurized or skimmed milk, and refined and hydrogenated vegetable oils.\u00a0 All the diets contained animal products of some sort and all included some salt.” There’s lots of details about each of the ten primitive peoples he traveled to study, including comparison photographs of people eating a native diet and those who had converted to eating a modern, ‘civilized’ diet.<\/p>\n
Good review of Dr. Price’s book: Weston A. Price Is Smart, and Butter Is Good<\/a> : A Review Of The Best Book Ever<\/p>\n This is much more than a cookbook of recipes showing us how to prepare foods for the best nutrition; it\u2019s also chock full of much general health & nutrition information. I\u00a0especially enjoy\u00a0reading the sidebars.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A companion to Nourishing Traditions<\/em> to help teach children the value of nutrient foods with easy to use recipes they can help prepare.\u00a0 It provides children with the key messages of the parent book\u2015the benefits of eggs, butter, bone broths and soups, lacto-fermented foods, meat and organ meats.<\/p>\n The Nourishing Traditions Book of Baby & Child Care makes the principles of traditional nutrition available to modern parents. The book provides holistic advice for pregnancy and newborn interventions, vaccinations, breastfeeding and child development, as well as a compendium of natural treatments for childhood illnesses, from autism to whooping cough. The work of Rudulf Steiner supports the book’s emphasis on the child’s spiritual requirement for imaginative play.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Discover the amazing natural healing powers of bone broth, the ancient cure-all that is today\u2019s newest health food trend.\u00a0 This book contains all the necessary information to make many kinds of broth as well as the science behind the health benefits.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sally Fallon Morell explores the diets of our nonindustrialized ancestors from around the world–from Australian Aborigines and indigenous Americans to the inhabitants of the “Blue Zones.”\u00a0 Nourishing Diets cuts through confusing, often conflicting, trend-based diets to offer a tour of foodways past and present.\u00a0 Recipes for historical foods are included.<\/p>\n The authors ask the question: are there really such things as “viruses”? Or are electro smog, toxic living conditions, and 5G actually to blame for COVID-19?\u00a0 The book may be bought at several retailers, including Barnes & Noble<\/a>, and on Dr. Cowan’s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dr. Cowan looks at emerging evidence that certain childhood illnesses are actually protective of disease later in life; examines the role of fever, the gut, and cellular fluid in immune health; argues that vaccination is an ineffective (and harmful) attempt to shortcut a complex immune response; and asserts that the medical establishment has engaged in an authoritarian argument that robs parents of informed consent. His ultimate question, from the point of view of a doctor who has decades of experience treating countless children is: What are we really doing to children when we vaccinate them?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dr. Robert Mendelsohn, renowned pediatrician and author advises parents on home treatment and diagnosis of colds and flus, childhood illnesses, vision and hearing problems, allergies, and more. PLUS, a complete section on picking the right doctor for your child, step-by-step instructions for knowing when to call a doctor, and much more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dr. Pottenger conducted research between 1932 and 1942 to determine the effects of heat processed foods on the health of cats.\u00a0 He discovered that feeding cats cooked meats and pasteurized milk caused deterioration of the cats’ health that increased with each generation until the third generation was unable to reproduce live kittens.\u00a0 Pottenger’s Cats<\/em> is about a ground-breaking study that foretold the development of epigenetics many years later.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This book gives the truth about fats–what are good fats, and how to use good fats to achieve health and a reasonable weight. Includes lots of good recipes: one of my favorites is Beef Vegetable Soup<\/em>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dr. Thomas Cowan presents a new way of understanding the body\u2019s most central organ. He offers a new look at what it means to be human and how we can best care for ourselves\u2014and one another.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In this book, Thomas Cowan, MD, argues that the failure of the war on cancer was inevitable because the oncogene theory is incorrect\u2014or at least incomplete\u2014and based on a flawed concept of biology in which DNA controls our cellular function and therefore our health. Instead, Dr. Cowan tells us, the somatic mutations seen in cancer cells are the result of a cellular deterioration that has little to do with oncogenes, DNA, or even the nucleus. The root cause is metabolic dysfunction that deteriorates the structured water that forms the basis of cytoplasmic\u2014and therefore, cellular\u2014health.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The authors of Virus Mania<\/em>, journalist Torsten Engelbrecht and doctor of internal medicine Claus Kohnlein, show that these alleged contagious viruses are in fact particles produced by the cells themselves as a consequence of certain stress factors such as drugs. These particles are then identified by antibody and PCR tests and interpreted as epidemic-causing viruses by doctors who have been inoculated for over 100 years by the theory that microbes are deadly and only modern medications and vaccines will protect us from virus pandemics.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dr. Enig’s book is easy to understand but is written with enough technical detail to support the position that cholesterol and natural saturated fats are good and that vegetable oils are bad for health.\u00a0 I have many passages highlighted in yellow, for example: “The claim that saturated fat leads to heart disease is simply false. This claim was initiated as a marketing tool to sell oils and margarine (in competition to butter, lard and tallow).”<\/p>\n Dr. Ravnskov explains how the anti-cholesterol campaign began and why it was misguided.\u00a0 He begins his book by asking questions like these: “Did you know that cholesterol is not a deadly poison, but a substance vital to the cells of all mammals? ” “Did you know that high cholesterol is not a risk factor for women?” “Did you know that many of the cholesterol-lowering drugs are dangerous to your health and may shorten your life?”\u00a0 He answers these questions and much more.<\/p>\n This book demonstrates that “Saturated fat isn’t bad” and\u00a0“High cholesterol is good.”\u00a0 Dr. Ravnskov says “It is simply a masterpiece of deceit to convince a whole world that too much saturated fat in our food should cause a deadly disease.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The GAPS Diet is based on the “Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) created by Dr. Sidney Valentine Haas to heal digestive disorders. SCD gained great popularity after a mother, Elaine Gottschall, healed her own child and became an advocate for SCD. Elaine Gottschall is also the author of the popular book Breaking the Vicious Cycle. Intestinal Health Through Diet.\u00a0 Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride has taken SCD and evolved it further to create a full protocol for healing digestive disorders and subsequent issues” I know of amazing health improvement in very serious cases after following the GAPS protocol.<\/p>\n Due to the growing number of vaccine safety concerns, our society has been polarized into vaccine advocates and vaccine opponents. However, in the debate over vaccine safety, we have lost sight of a bigger problem: how vaccination campaigns wipe out our herd immunity and endanger the very young. Written by an immunologist, Vaccine Illusion<\/em> explains why vaccines cannot give us lasting immunity to infectious diseases and how they jeopardize our natural immunity and overall health.<\/p>\n Dissolving Illusions<\/em> details facts and figures from long-overlooked medical journals, books, newspapers, and other sources. Using myth-shattering graphs, this book shows that vaccines, antibiotics, and other medical interventions are not responsible for the increase in lifespan and the decline in mortality from infectious diseases. If the medical profession could systematically misinterpret and ignore key historical information, the question must be asked, \u201cWhat else is ignored and misinterpreted today?\u201d Perhaps the best reason to know our history is so that the worst parts are never repeated.<\/p>\n A fascinating account of the world\u2019s most famous disease\u2014polio\u2014 told as you have never heard it before. . . The Moth in the Iron Lung is a fascinating biography of this horrible paralytic disease, where it came from, and why it disappeared in the 1950s. If you\u2019ve never explored the polio story beyond the tales of crippled children and iron lungs, this book will be sure to surprise.<\/p>\n In the late 1800s, a new disease arrived in North America from Europe and began to claim the lives of children everywhere. Though most today have never even heard of this illness, it would routinely kill over ten thousand children in a single year\u2014more than the polio might take in an entire decade. After much trial and tribulation, a shot was developed that helped both those already afflicted with the illness, and those who might one day become infected. But the shot was dangerous, and many parents refused it for their children.<\/p>\n In 1932, a safer version of the shot was developed, but contained a new ingredient never before tried on humans. Due to aggressive immunization campaigns, children all over the country began to receive this shot. Within a year, a new mental disorder\u2014unknown to even the most knowledgeable child psychologists in the country\u2014began to appear. It affected toddlers, and mostly boys. Children were losing the ability to speak and would take little interest in any other humans\u2014even their parents.The Autism Vaccine chronicles the story of two of these children\u2014one known throughout the world, the other completely unknown until recently\u2014and why modern medicine\u2019s attempts to explain what happened to them have so far come up short.<\/p>\n Why do babies have lopsided smiles? Why are so many people\u2019s eyes misaligned? What started as a simple search to understand this phenomenon turned into a two-year quest that uncovered hidden links between our crooked faces and some of the most puzzling diseases of our time. From autism to Alzheimer\u2019s and from chronic fatigue syndrome to Crohn\u2019s disease, Crooked methodically goes through the most recent scientific research and connects the dots from the outbreak of metallic medicine in 1800s England to the eruption of neurological and autoimmune disorders so many are suffering from today. If the theories put forth in this book are true, the convergence of metals, microbes and medicine that started two hundred years ago may have set humanity on a path of suffering that could make the deadliest epidemics in history pale in comparison.<\/p>\n Dr. Blaylock is a board-certified neurosurgeon who brings experience and deep understanding to the subject of this book: How monosodium glutamate, aspartame, and similar substances can harm the brain and their relationship to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Lou Gehrig’s disease (ALS), and others. The compelling information and danger of these toxins is so great that reading this book alone on a dark night might be too scary. Dr. Blaylock provides lots of explanations and detail to back up his conclusions.<\/p>\n Esther Gokhale studied at the Aplomb Institute in Paris and traveled to parts of the world where back pain is virtually unknown.\u00a0 She presents the insights she gained and brings them together in a step-by-step guide designed to help those suffering from back pain re-educate their bodies and regain the posture for which our bodies evolved.<\/p>\n David\u00a0Gumpert is a strong advocate for food freedom and our right to choose the foods we think are healthy for us and for our children.\u00a0\u00a0Although his book is ostensibly about the battle for raw milk, “the reason this fight is so emotionally charged is because it’s really a battle over endless numbers of other foods as well. . .\u00a0it’s a battle over a right so fundamental and natural that the authors of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence didn’t think to mention it: the right to obtain the foods we feel are healthiest and safest for us and our families, despite what government regulators, public health professionals, and the medical establishment may want us to believe.”<\/p>\n I’ve got lots of things marked in this book.\u00a0 The Jaminets “believe that disease and ill health are caused by the interplay of three factors: food toxins, malnourishment; and chronic infections by bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa.\u00a0 All three of these factors can be (and must be!) addressed by diet.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ron Schmid tells the story of mankind’s use of domesticated animals’ milk beginning as early as thirty thousand years ago in the Sinai Peninsula.\u00a0 He says, “In the whole range of organic matter, milk is the only substance purposely designed and prepared by nature as food.\u00a0 Early humans did not hesitate to appropriate this gift of nature for their own use.”\u00a0 He continues throughout history to the present time when “the dairy industry has striven mightily to eradicate–wholesome milk and independent dairy farmers . . .”<\/p>\n In a search for a wheat that her daughter could safely eat, Carla Bartolucci discovered ancient Einkorn, the only wheat in existence that has never been hybridized.\u00a0 Her daughter can safely eat foods made with Einkorn wheat.\u00a0 Cooking with Einkorn wheat requires some changes to recipes made with hybridized wheat. This cookbook provides easy to follow, well-illustrated recipes for all things made with wheat from sourdough bread and cookies to tortillas and pasta.<\/p>\n If you already cook from Nourishing Tradition<\/em>s by Sally Fallon and have read Nutrition and Physical Degeneration<\/em> by Dr. Weston A. Price and if you follow the websites of The Healthy Home Economist<\/a>, Dr. Mercola<\/a>, and GreenMedInfo<\/em><\/a>, you may not need The Pantry Principle<\/em>.\u00a0 However, if you know you should eat healthier, more nutritious food but just don\u2019t know where to start, The Pantry Principle<\/em>, by Mira Dessy, NE, could be just the right book for you.\u00a0 The subtitle tells you what to expect: \u201cHow to read the label and understand what\u2019s really in your food<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0 This book is aimed primarily at the grocery store shopper who buys packaged foods but doesn\u2019t understand the ingredients labels.\u00a0 Read Real Food Houston’s review of The Pantry Principle<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n Joel Salatin, the widely known farmer profiled in Food, Inc.<\/em>, Fresh, the movie<\/em> and in the book Omnivore’s Dilemma<\/em>, writes with humor and wisdom about his farm, our way of life, and what it takes to eat and live healthily. He believes in the value of the farm animal.\u00a0 Here’s what he says about the cow: “This is perhaps one of the biggest misunderstandings people have about farming ecology.\u00a0 In a desire to get rid of the cow, they want to substitute plants that require tillage. . . To think that plants that require tillage can build soil like perennial pasture indicates environmental absurdity.” “Tillage always depletes soil organic matter and vital nutrients.”<\/p>\n Sandor Katz is devoted to fermentation.\u00a0 As he says, he is sometimes “tending to as many as a dozen different bubbly fermentation experiments at once.”\u00a0 He has lots of good instructions for creating vegetable ferments (like sauerkraut, pickles, miso, tempeh), dairy ferments (such as kefir and yogurt),\u00a0breads and grain porridges (like sourdough and oat porridge), and beverages (like wine, beer, and kombucha).<\/p>\n This was one of the first books I read that helped set me on the right track about diet and nutrition. Gary Taubes has done extensive research and\u00a0provides the technical detail to explain the effects of what we eat and don\u2019t eat on our health and bodies.\u00a0 My copy of this book has lots of markers in it; however, see my reservations<\/a> about low carb diets below.\u00a0 You might also want to read the review of this book by Stephan Guyenet PhD, The Carbohydrate Hypothesis of Obesity: a Critical Examination<\/a> and the answer by\u00a0 Andreas Einfeldt MD, Guyenet, Taubes and why low carb works<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Gary Taubes\u00a0builds upon the research presented in Good Calories, Bad Calories <\/em><\/strong>and\u00a0now addresses the specific question of why we gain weight and get fat.\u00a0 He discusses dieting, exercise, and\u00a0insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue. A No Sugar, No Starch diet plan is included in the Appendix.\u00a0 See my reservations<\/a> about low carb diets below.<\/p>\n Dr.\u00a0Lutz used low-carbohydrate nutrition with his patients during\u00a0more than forty years of medical practice, and this book provides insight into what he learned and why it works.\u00a0 Chapter One\u00a0 begins “Contrary to current popular wisdom, it is carbohydrates, not fat, that contribute to many dietary related diseases.”\u00a0Life Without Bread<\/em> presents actual data from the medical files of Dr. Lutz for thousands of his patients using\u00a0low-carbohydrate nutrition.\u00a0\u00a0The\u00a0technical and physical reasons for the success of a low carbohydrate diet are detailed, and there are recommended\u00a0lists of foods that should be avoided and those that can be eaten freely.\u00a0 There is easy-to-follow advice of what to eat and what not to eat to be healthy.\u00a0 See my reservations<\/a> about low carb diets below.<\/p>\n Dr. Davis is a cardiologist who advocates a wheat-free diet.\u00a0 He supports his position with an analysis of modern wheat: “what we are eating, cleverly disguised as a bran muffin or onion ciabatta, is not really wheat at all but the transformed product of genetic research conducted during the latter half of the twentieth century. . . . the increased consumption of this genetically altered thing called modern wheat–explains the contrast between slender, sedentary people of the fifties and overweight twenty-first-century people, triathletes included. ”<\/p>\n Other Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n There are lots of good websites for more information about health and nutrition issues, raw milk, and health and food freedom.\u00a0 Here are a few I recommend:<\/p>\n The Weston A. Price Foundation<\/strong><\/a>, nutrition and health education non-profit advocating a wise tradition diet based on the research of Weston A. Price DDS Reservations<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n I have one important reservation with the low-carbohydrate nutrition in\u00a0both of Gary Taubes\u2019 books and in\u00a0Life Without Bread<\/em>. They seem to\u00a0treat all carbohydrate foods as equal in benefit or harm; however, there is much evidence, based on Dr. Weston A. Price\u2019s book and others, that carbohydrates can be included in a healthy diet if properly prepared and eaten in reasonable quantities.<\/p>\n All the groups of native peoples that Dr. Price studied and observed were much healthier than those on the \u201ccivilized\u201d Western diet, including those groups who ate largely agricultural products. The healthiest groups were those that ate mostly animal products\u2014meat, seafood, milk, butter, cheese, etc.\u2014but also included some properly prepared grains or other carbohydrates in their diets.<\/p>\n The quality and condition of the foods were significantly different from the foods we usually eat today. Some examples: grains were freshly ground and soaked, fermented (for example, sourdough), or sprouted before preparing; milk, butter, and cheese were made with raw, unprocessed milk; the whole animal or seafood was eaten, including the fat and organs, and the bones were used to make nourishing broth.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s an example of my reservation about the low carbohydrate books: Life Without Bread<\/em> recommends limiting daily carbohydrate intake to approximately 72 grams but treats all carbohydrates alike. I don\u2019t necessarily disagree with limiting total carbohydrates, but I think those carbohydrates should be as nutrient dense as possible and be properly prepared to enhance the nutrition and to reduce adverse side effects.<\/p>\n A person who cares about his\/her health would not want to allocate many, if any, of the limited carbohydrates to junk foods even if staying within the total carbohydrate count. A few examples of what I consider junk foods are white sugar;\u00a0high fructose corn syrup; refined hybridized wheat flour; commercial baked goods like cookies and cakes; commercial\/restaurant fried foods; and\u00a0cold cereals. All of these are highly processed,\u00a0may contain unhealthy fats and oils, and provide no significant nutrition.<\/p>\n Good carbohydrates include properly prepared whole grains, whole raw milk, whole fruits, and fresh vegetables. The goal in healthy eating should always be to maximize the nutrition. I also think it matters that the proteins and fats should be from healthy animals, for example, grass-fed beef and pastured chicken and lamb, or fresh wild-caught seafood. Eating factory-grown animals, eggs, and farmed fish may be better than eating processed high-carbohydrate junk food, but it would be even better to eat meat, milk, and eggs from healthy animals.<\/p>\n Disclaimer<\/strong><\/p>\n I am not a health practitioner.
