ENIG, PhD, an expert of world renown in the field of lipid chemistry, has brought scientific and media attention to the adverse health effects of trans fatty acids found in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils. She is a licensed nutritionist, vice-president of the Weston A. Price Foundation, fellow of the American College of Nutrition and president of the Maryland Nutritionists Association.

Price Foundation, is a frequent speaker at conferences and seminars on whole foods and nutrition. Her interest in the subject of diet and human health began in the 1970s when she read Nutrition & Physical Degeneration by Dr. Weston A. Price. This pioneering study of healthy indigenous peoples presents compelling evidence that the basis of good health is found in nutrient-dense whole foods, particularly animal fats rich in vitamin A, vitamin D and the Price Factor. This includes sea food, organ meats, eggs and butterfat from grass-fed animals. Her experience in applying Dr. Price's findings to the feeding of her own family, and her work with Dr. Mary Enig, led her to write Nourishing Traditions.
