healthy living

Let's face it - there's a plethora of what I like to call "opinion" about what a healthy lifestyle involves out there.

Do you want to know what changed our lives?  The comprehensive work done by the late Weston A Price.  Finally something made sense to us on a nutritional level and we could not unlearn what we discovered.

Let's face it - how much is out there telling us to eat this and do that - all based on rubbish research and commodity based financial gains - meaning "hey guys - we can grow this stuff cheaply - how many ways can we bastardise it and force it down the throats of the planet?"  -- so much of what we are fed in this modern world is based on "cheap" production -- but if there is more investigation done - cheap is only a mindset.  -- in the end it is expensive.  We pay for it with our health and our planet.

Weston Price was able to study multiple "untouched" communities around the world that had not yet been subjected to the modern diets of the western world.  His findings are fascinating and fundamentally sound.  He documented the health and lifespan of all of the members of these communities - which are absolutely life changing to read about.

The Weston A Price Foundation has continued his work by teaching the world of traditional food - and challenging the "diet dictocrats" that are the supposedly experts of nutrition.

Trust me - you can't unlearn this stuff.  Check it out for yourself.
