Following in the Footsteps of
Dr. Weston A. Price in Peru
By Katie Williamson
n September 2017, I had the privilege and honor, along
with my wonderful colleague, Hilda Labrada Gore,
Ito travel to Peru to give a series of lectures around the
country about Dr. Weston Price´s masterpiece, Nutrition
and Physical Degeneration. Our trip was sponsored by
the Weston A. Price Foundation. Given that Dr. Price’s
book still is not published in Spanish, we felt the urgent
need to share the wisdom contained in the book with a
people so much closer to their roots than we are here in
the United States.
Any Peruvian will tell you, with much deserved pride, that Peru is one
of the most biodiverse places in the world. As you journey from the dry
desert of the Pacific coast toward the east, you will glide over the majestic
white mountaintops of the tallest peaks of the Andes Mountains and then
descend into the lungs of the world, the Amazon rainforest.
