TRACK I
10:00-5:30 Seminar on Traditional Diets with
Sally Fallon
Animal fats, properly prepared whole grains, enzyme-enriched
foods and nourishing bone broths kept our ancestors healthy. Sally
Fallon, author of Nourishing Traditions, explains why these
are vital factors for maintaining good health today. Beginning with
a presentation of Dr. Weston Price’s unforgettable photographs
of healthy traditional peoples, Ms. Fallon explains the underlying
factors in a variety of traditional diets that conferred beauty, strength
and complete freedom from disease on so-called primitive populations.
Then she presents a step-by-step plan to put nourishing traditional
foods--foods that your family will actually eat--back into
your diet, including easy breakfast cereals, soups, sauces, snack
foods, high enzyme condiments and soft drinks that are actually good
for you.
Learn about:
- Butter, the number one health food
- Vital role of high-cholesterol foods
- Why lowfat and vegan diets don’t work
- The magical powers of raw whole milk from pasture-fed
cows
- Dangers of modern soy foods and soy infant formula
- The conspiracy to promote vegetable oils and hydrogenated
fats
- Foods that help babies grow up smart and strong
- Old-fashioned foods that give limitless energy and
vibrant health
