Dennis: Thank you for that thorough post! I am a member of the Weston A. Price Foundation, and I have to say that I am always thrilled when I see the findings of Dr. Price vindicated. There are times when his book is unavailable, and I'm sure it's an indication that LOTS of people are reading it at last. He was a true prophet, and his work is just as valid today as it was when he made his studies. His website is at WESTON A. PRICE. There is a wealth of real information on REAL nutrition there.

I see you're in Alaska. Weston Price studied a few Indian tribes way up in the Canadian north. There will never be another Weston Price, partly because the "peoples" just aren't there any more and are eating white man's food.  William Albrecht was also a pioneer.

Me too!

As a kid, studying human origins -- not just for school but as a hobby -- I was perplexed that ~90% of my peers wouldn't have made it a few centuries ago, and couldn't find an evolutionary explanation. Why did I and a few others have straight teeth, 20/20 vision, etc, and the rest mostly didn't? How could the gene pool deteriorate that quickly after the relaxation of selection? It didn't make sense. THEN... at age 12.. I stumbled upon Nutrition & Physical Degeneration in a healthfood store. I never forgot what I saw (1 picture is worth 1000 words). There was the answer to the mystery: our modern physicial degeneration was nutritional, and reversible.

Of course, nobody else wanted to hear it. Dentists, in particular, are taught in dental school that malocclusion is 'genetic', and the idea of preventing that (or any other structural defect) by "primitive" prenatal nutrition was alien to them. In fact, people in general just gave me a blank look if I tried to talk about it, so I mostly stopped, and for many years I carried this knowledge around with me, alone -- through school, college, gradschool (Ph.D. in chemistry), and out into the working world. But at least I ate well, even if nobody else around me did.

Then one fine day, at age 37, I idly threw the name "Weston Price" into a search engine and found the Weston A Price foundation, which happened to have a local chapter. After my first meeting, I told them all, "I waited 25 years to have these conversations!"

A raw-milk toast to both of you!
