The annual conference of the Weston A. Price Foundation just wound up today in Orlando. Three days of intensive sessions on health and nutrition . This was my first time attending. The information, the energy, the speakers, the delicious and healthy food, the vendors, the camaraderie were an uplifting experience, especially in these shadowy times. And we enjoyed a keynote speech by Congressional warrior Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky. Join this excellent organization and get yourself to the next conference in Salt Lake City. Maybe I'll see you there

These healthy people had no need for doctors, dentists or police. Price’s research shows that every racial group has a “perfect human” blueprint, and we all are meant to be strong, beautiful and long-lived.

Our bodies are amazing if we remember how to use them.

I am in the middle of writing a post and I was wondering whether I should make this point in it, on a slightly different subject:

About year ago I started making my own Sauerkraut. Then I started making Rillette at home. I built myself a cold smoker a few months ago and now I am seriously contemplating to cure and make my own ham. I am done with processed meat. The Hungarian peasant style smoked sausage I make is out of this world perfect. Not only did my diet improved, but it is also a fundamentally liberating feeling.

If you come to visit me, I will not let you go without a pair.

Living sauerkraut is awesome.

I got out of college and could not find a job let alone a career so I became a professional graduate student, working for a dynamic follower of Weston A. Price fifty years ago. I wish I had paid more attention, but no great opportunity lost because universities are horrible places to learn things anyway. My employer and his wife followed none of the conventional nutrition advice, eating eggs and bacon every day. Their blood cholesterol levels were so low the technicians could not believe the numbers and always ran the assay at least twice.

I was a professional student too. When I finally graduated, I moved from Boston to San Diego (via Dallas and Montreal). I landed a dream job, working for the Gerson Institute. At the time, it was poorly managed, but I spent my days reading (books like this one), researching, writing articles, answering a bazillion email inquiries about the Gerson Therapy, overseeing the operation of the Gerson Therapy at a hospital in Tijuana,managing the client services department and answering phone inquiries with those interested in the therapy - either giving them help so they could do the therapy on their own or doing intake and helping access whether they were good candidates to get the therapy in Tijuana.

The only thing I learned at Boston University was how to write well! I used to love writing. I hope to return to it one day!

Have you heard of Charlotte Gerson and/or Dr. Max Gerson?

Charlotte was my mentor. I learned SO much from her.

Thanks to her, I was able to conceive after trying for two years (nearly).

In about 1985 I knew a guy dying of cancer. He was trying to raise money to get to the Gerson hospital in Tijauna. Probably, way too late. Never made it. He died.

College is where the imagination goes to die.

Weston Price, such a great man. His discoveries should be honored/celebrated. Practiced/lived in Cleveland, OH. Not one word on the books that mention this man. His home should be a museum, a street named after him. Instead the city honors the home/leg lamp from The Christmas Story?
