If you are familiar with this blog series you know that I include
the findings of both Dr. Weston A. Price ("Nutrition and
Physical Degeneration", the cornerston Foundation" of which
I've been a member of since its first year of existence plus a
former local chapter founder and co-leader) and Dr. Hamer -
who discover that are the foundation for the New Medicine.
If you have been introduced to German New Medicine (GNM)
you may know that it does not appear to give as much credit
8

to the idea of nutritional deficiency "disease" as does Weston


A. Price. (I do wonder how GNM would explain the report of
Dr. Price in his well documented "Nutrition and Physical
Degeneration.
For instance tuberculosis (and the other diseases of the day)
were virtually non-existent among the isolated indigenous
cultures while being considerably wi communities! In contrast
- when the children of these isolated cultures left their tribes
and consumed the modern day manufactured foods they soon
acquire like the industrialized peoples. Then (just in case this
contrast is not yet strong enough) when they returned to the
diets of their native culture they recovered tribe! Isn't that
interesting!?
I am convinced that nutrition plays a more important role in
disease prevention then is generally properly recognized
while simultaneously realizing that the p is a singularity where
emotional shocks in the psyche literally mark themselves on
the brain and that, in turn, can launch a specific biological
program that m corresponding organ of the body! However - I
believe that it is possible to obtain a level of nutritional
sufficiency that can be recognized as playing an essential
resistance" or "prevention" and that there appears to be
evidence that supports the idea.
Nutrition for Psyche -
Dr. Price's nutrition-based findings not only indicates high
resistance to "physical degeneration" it also indicated that
traditional peoples had healthier psyche their traditional diets.
Recognition and acceptance of "nutrition for psyche" could
allow for a new synthesis of GNM + traditional dietary
9

wisdom. That synthesis under the banner of "Psyche and


Health"!
Overall I'm convinced that Dr. Price's findings are severely
under estimated; they are generally disregarded and will
continue as such until the nutrition-to-ps acknowledged to the
extent that the psyche-to-brain connection is regarded in the
new medicine!
Weston Price points to a connection between traditional
nourishment and a much higher level of health (virtually
unknown in the Western world) particularly r resiliency to
"shock conflict". This connection deserves to be
acknowledged! (Updated July 12th + the following.)

There is both the essential nutritional requirement that must
be met plus the need to eliminate (or maybe possibly reduce
to what I could call a "Renaissance one wants an optimally

And now the Main Course for the greatest "Big Fat Miracle" of
all! -
From "Nutrition and Mental Development" by Sally Fallon
Morell -

I’d like to start—as I always do—with an introduction to the


research of Dr. Weston A. Price. Weston Price was a dentist
who traveled throughout the world d studying healthy
traditional peoples. He found fourteen healthy groups
scattered in different locations, all eating very different foods,
but all exhibiting excelle served as a sign of excellent overall
health. They had no cavities, no dental deformities, their faces
were broad and their teeth were naturally straight. Every
Nobody needed braces! He also noted the cheerful, optimistic
outlook of these people–how spiritual they were, how well
they got along. He did not observe healthy traditional
populations. He wrote about his discoveries and published his
fascinating photographs in his book Nutrition and Physical
Degeneration.
PARADISE LOST
One particular place that he visited was the South Seas. The
first Europeans to visit these South Sea Islands were Captain
Cook and his sailors. When they scurvy and tooth decay and
were just barely holding on to life. The South Sea Islands,
with their beautiful, happy people, seemed like a paradise on
earth, a The best bone structure that he found was in the
South Seas–such beautiful, smiling, healthy people.
These people ate a mixed diet based on seafood and pork.
The most important plant food in the diet was coconut. So it
was a high-fat diet, as pork and coco all the cultures he
studied, the South Sea Islanders had at least one sacred
food. Sacred foods were foods consumed by men and women
before conception and breast feeding, and by all children
when growing. Unlike our fatalistic society, which blames any
problem in a newborn or in our children on two things–g Sea
13

Islanders knew that the health of their children was their own
responsibility. They understood that growing children needed
abundant nutrition–not minim minimum daily allowance—
there was nothing about minimum in these cultures. They
knew that nature could provide for abundance, abundant
nutrition, esp the baby was being formed and growing.
One sacred food in the South Seas was shark liver. They
didn’t need to hunt the sharks for food; they had plenty of food
and hunting sharks was dangerous. get their livers so that
they could have healthy babies. The livers were removed from
the sharks and put inside the stomachs of the sharks and
hung up insid ferment. The oil that came out was fermented
shark liver oil, very similar to the fermented cod liver oil that
we recommend,[32] and this was taken by the you get
married and by women when they were pregnant, and also
given to growing children. In addition, the men ate the male
reproductive organs and the wom reproductive organs of the
shark. So they had foods specific for men and woman to
ensure fertility.
We received a sad letter a few years ago from a gal whose
father had been a dentist and a big admirer of Weston Price.
He had taken his children to the So that time, she said, it was
indeed a paradise on Earth. The people were so beautiful, so
happy, always smiling and healthy in every way. In the 1970s,
she to the same island. When they got to the port, the ship sat
in the harbor for half a day, and they weren’t allowed off.
When she queried the captain about why th “Oh, we have to
unload the Sara Lee Coffee Cake first.” The captain added
that the whole shipment of coffee cake would be bought and
eaten within two da the ship, she was utterly shocked at what
she saw. The people were unhealthy looking; they had tooth
14

decay. But the most startling difference was the chan never
heard a child cry when they visited in the 1950s; but on this
trip the children were crying and fighting on the docks. So,
there was not only a change in looked, but also a change in
the way they acted–all because of the incursion of western
foods. What she observed was most definitely paradise lost.
CHOLESTEROL AND THE BRAIN
Focusing now on the nutrients needed for our brain, as well
as our second brain, the main nutrient we find when we
analyze the brain is cholesterol—somet right? The brain
contains more cholesterol than any other organ in the body.
But we are not supposed to eat cholesterol, right? Young
women are supposed when they’re pregnant, even though
animal fats are our main source of cholesterol. And according
to government guidelines, a child is supposed to be put o she
turns two.
A recent study showed that women who ate lowfat dairy foods
tended to be infertile, while women who ate high-fat dairy
foods had no problem getting pregn said, if you can’t get
pregnant eating lowfat dairy foods, eat the high-fat dairy foods
until you get pregnant and then go back to the lowfat dairy
foods during p rational to conclude that the same kind of diet
needed to get pregnant is also needed for normal fetal
development?
Mother’s milk contains a lot of cholesterol along with a special
enzyme to ensure sure that all that cholesterol is absorbed–
because babies can’t make all the properly form the brain and
the second brain. The second brain has lots of cholesterol in
it, too. The cells lining the gut need a lot of cholesterol to work
prop we have gone wrong is the endorsement of lowfat,

vegan and vegetarian diets for women of childbearing age.


And our children are paying the price! ...[15]

The subject of healthy fats and their vital importance for or

of. I am deeply grateful that my own nourishment in my diet

Especially when there appear to consequential to

malnourishment and/or at least due to deficiency of healthy


fat. I appreciate Dr. Weston A. Price's last words that he said
right at the end of teach, you teach!

Traditional diets contain nearly equal amounts of omega-6
and omega-3 essential fatty acids."[18]
“Dietary fat is necessary for the absorption of fat-soluble
vitamins. ... In order to absorb fat-soluble vitamins from our

I have a close friend who has suffered over the years with gut
disorder and I've always suspected his "low-cholesterol
vegetarian diet"! From Dr. Mercola -

"Dietary Guidelines for Maintaining Healthy Brain Function
and Avoiding Alzheimer's Disease
It's becoming increasingly clear that the same pathological
process that leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes
may also hold true for your brain. As and grains, your brain
becomes overwhelmed by the consistently high levels of
glucose and insulin that blunts its insulin signaling, leading to
impairments in abilities, eventually causing permanent brain
damage.
Additionally, when your liver is busy processing fructose
(which your liver turns into fat), it severely hampers its ability
to make cholesterol, an essential buildi crucial for optimal
brain function. Indeed, mounting evidence supports the notion
that significantly reducing fructose consumption is a very
important step for disease.
Because of the very limited treatments, and no available cure
as of yet, you're really left with just one solid solution, and that
19

is to prevent Alzheimer's from h place. As explained by


neurologist Dr. David Perlmutter, Alzheimer's is a disease
predicated primarily on lifestyle choices; the two main culprits
being excess consumption."[23]
This article validates my realization regarding the relationship
between dietary fats and sugar in the diet. The more we can
achieve a high-(good) fat content body the better off our
brains will be as well as the body organs. Definitely best to
achieve this before any brain damage! I know a man who
over-indulges on is significantly impaired and I suspect his
thinking brain may be as well.

"In summary, our choice of fats and oils is one of extreme


importance. Most people, especially infants and growing
children, benefit from more fat in the diet we eat must be
chosen with care. Avoid all processed foods containing
newfangled hydrogenated fats and polyunsaturated oils.
Instead, use traditional vege olive oil and small amounts of
unrefined flax seed oil. Acquaint yourself with the merits of
coconut oil for baking and with animal fats for occasional
frying. Ea fats with the proteins to which they are attached.
And, finally, use as much good quality butter as you like, with
the happy assurance that it is a wholesome— for you and
your whole family."[29]
My early childhood instincts attracted me to real butter as a
must have food! I can remember during my crawling stage
licking the butter of the wrappers! In diet for a couple months

there are others who really do well (although I don't know

documentary at just about three minutes i
I started this blog over four years ago on December 31, 2013.
At that time I mentioned the "findings of ... Dr. Weston A.
Price" which are the results of his mo primitive peoples as
25

presented in his magnificent book: "Nutrition and Physical


Degeneration". Sally Fallon Morell has observed that Dr. Price
"did not observ healthy traditional populations." Will western
medicine ever acknowledge this? It is now approaching eighty
years since the original publication of this work a completely
ignored by the whole entire medical matrix. Do you think the
pharmaceutical industry had and still has something to do with
turning a blind eye re discovered?
Continuing with "Nutrition for Psyche" the very next item I
presented was concerning the anti-nutriton consequences of
sugar with its devastating impact on t connection with the
brain. Fortunately this kind of information is coming out in
works such as Broken Brain.
Just before Dr. Hyman's opening statement another doctor:
Drew Ramsey spoke of a "wave of mental health disorders"
and that these disorders are "rooted the first and second
episodes we learned that brain health is rooted in gut health.
Therefore mental health is ultimately rooted in gut health. Yet
this understa decades earlier with Dr. Price and earlier still!
It is at this point that I have to acknowledge the fact that there
are other interests at play in the world of "medicine" than just
the high ideals of good doctors. I other interests are most
largely of a corporate nature that has been enormously
successful in achieving its primary objectives of benefiting
their investor/shar many doctors to "immediately reach for
their prescription pad".

January 23, 2018 - More Exposure On the Con of Canola -
Not a "Big Fat Miracle"!
26

Just submitted the following at Weston A. Price.org:


Chef Jemichel says

January 23, 2018 at 7:53 am (Eastern)
Sally you deserve a standing ovation! And this article[40]
deserves to be required reading in all schools of medicine,
every culinary course and all health, nut u.s.of A!
That’s my honest assessment and includes an up-to-date
observation based on one of the so-called leading institutions
and their ‘experts” on what they call Dr. Walter Willett”[ii] says:
“It is essential to include a special kind of unsaturated fat,
called omega-3 fats, in the diet; good sources include ...
canola oil”.[i] T Healthy Eating Plate, created by nutrition
experts at Harvard School of Public Health and editors at
Harvard Health Publications,”[iii] claimed to be based on
problem is they do not give full disclosure on all the funding
that supports whatever “science” they may be referring to as
well as full disclosure on whatever achieve with their science
projects.
A large part of what makes this article so great as presenting
the money interest/s behind canola oil and with consistent
clarification in a way that makes perf intelligence as to why
certain products have been essentially invented and marketed
as if they were some kind of modern-day manna from heaven!
Also appreciated is the greater context and over-all guiding
wisdom based on whole health that requires a diet with
saturated fats as this further exposes the above mentioned
“expert” who also says: “Saturated fats ... negatively impact
health and are best consumed in moderation”[iv]
27

A current showing of a well-made documentary called: Broken


Brain also presents “the greater context” with many
references to gut-brain links and how pro dramatically
increased since the “low-fat” propaganda machine was
released several decades ago. Many of us reading here know
that health of body and mi on the health of the micro biome
which of course comes back to diet. And many of us also
know that special interests debased what once was our
reasonabl of nutrition (good fuel for our “engines”) that
effectively drained the high-grade oil out of the majority of
Americans’ “engines” and now we see “engines” freez when
this disaster includes the “little engines” of children! (If this
fraud were about machines there would be lawsuits flying all
over the place!)

this?). -

March 15, 2018 - Although I've made only one brief mention
of diabetes in the above posts I find the following relevant to
the subject matter of this blog for a there are essentially two
kinds of fuel the your body can possibly work with (although
one is better than the other). There is a carb-sugar based fuel
and ther following can be considered as an impetus toward
adopting the later fuel system.
"Diabetes is the most searched-for health condition on the
web today. Millions of people are trying to find out what it is
and how to overcome it.
However, modern medicine doesn't have time to educate
people about lifestyle and modern doctors know nothing about
the minerals that help prevent diabe drugs to force the
pancreas to produce more insulin, to try and make cells allow
glucose to enter. Having been bombarded with too much
insulin already, the and won't accept any more glucose. Thus,
the cells starve and no energy is produced and the blood
stream is saturated with sugar.
Producing excess insulin to deal with carbs puts you on the
road toward diabetes and tissue damage. Sugar levels keep
rising and your doctor just doubles t adds more meds and
finally insulin injections. Your blood sugar may look OK on
paper but your diabetes is getting worse along with drug side
effects.
30

However, there is another way that is natural, free, and


requires no drugs or surgery. It's Simple:
Stop the Sugar Input. Burn Off the Sugar. ..." -

Joan Grinzi, Executive Director of the Price-Pottenger

thoroughly search the archives. We can now s mentioned
fermented cod liver oil and never recommended a product like
it.” FCLO is neither a true “traditional” cod liver oil nor the
“high vitamin cod liver oil Dr. Price pointed out the danger of
rancidity in the cod liver oils of his day, and he cited other
researchers from the 1920s and 1930s who had “called
attentio considering the toxic substances in cod liver oils as
possible explanation for differences in the results obtained by
different workers in vitamin studies.”:
