This book was amazing! It changed my diet and now, thanks to the ongoing information from the Weston A. Price Foundation [...] I feel healthier than I ever have!
He explored how the healthiest people on the planet ate, how it affected their teeth and overall health. He drops hints at the incredibly exciting life he had, like mentioning that he and his wife met a cannibal chief on the Pacific Islands, travelled to Alaska, and climbed the Swiss Alps. And he found that age old dietary wisdom beats modern convenience foods hands down.
One unexpected find that I've shared with some dentist friends is that he had a special diet that stopped the progression of cavities and actually re calcified the deteriorating teeth.
The only flaw in the book was that I think he overlooked the very important role of salt in the native's diets. They used it to preserve their food, and those who ate modern foods ate much less, since it was canned.
Overall, a very good and important book! I'd recommend reading it with Andre Voisin's book, "Soil, Grass, and Cancer" as together they paint an amazing picture of what is happening to the human race.
