Guest guest Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hi. I am reading a book titled DEEP NUTRITION by Shanahan. It says basically the exact same diet that Western Botanicals listed. I've been following this way of eating for some time. I'm not up to 100% but I'll get there. Worst thing we ever did as humans was to go " fat free " , diet this, light this and that, and zero carbs. Our bodies will cooperate when we feed it the good stuff and not stuff that can be nuked etc. Just my humble opinion. Works for me.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 " Traditional Foods " or Traditional Diet refers to the basic diet that our ancestors would have eaten. It is based on the teachings of Weston A. Price who studied native people of the world and searched for common denominators for their health and longevity. Dr. Price's book is Nutrition and Physical Degeneration<http://www.amazon.com/Nutrition-Physical-Degeneration-Weston-Price/\ dp/0916764206/ref=sr_1_1?s=books & ie=UTF8 & qid=1331145370 & sr=1-1> .. The Weston A. Price Foundation has members worldwide, its 'working bible' is Sally Fallon's (founder of WAP) book: Nourishing Traditions<http://www.amazon.com/Nourishing-Traditions-Challenges-Politically-Di\ ctocrats/dp/0967089735/ref=sr_1_1?s=books & ie=UTF8 & qid=1331144978 & sr=1-1>. The book is a combination instruction manual/cookbook. The traditional diet includes raw milk, lots of butter, cream, cheese, liver, cod liver oil, grass fed meat, seafood, pastured eggs, soaked and/or sprouted grains, fermented foods, etc. No microwave use. No packaged foods, no commercial products, no refined ingredients, most everything is homemade.

There's another movement based on the same principals headed up by Jordan Rubin, and his book is The Maker's Diet.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 This is excellent Weston Price (he's the dentist that traveled to countries where aboriginal people were healthy and had good teeth <G>) - did some wonderful work. Another excellent book is a book called Deep Nutrition: Why your Genes need Traditional Food http://www.amazon.com/Deep-Nutrition-Your-Genes-Traditional/dp/0615228380 By Shanahan (with her husband, Luke Shanahan) She's an MD, family practice, who has been a genetics researcher her work supports the Weston A. Price information.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hi all!! I think we should all go and take out our bibles and look up recipes. (no one had any processed anything in those days). If you grew it or got it from someone who grew it, or if you milked it, or got it out of the well, WELL!! that's what you ate and drank. And wine was plentiful right? If it was good enough for the people back in bible days, then it's good enough for me. Oh, I just came home from ShopRite. Lordy, all those prepacked food. TONS of it. And all the microwave meals, the Lean Cuisine and the Weight Watchers meals, of course I tried them but they all tasted the same to me, and I haven't touched them in over 10 years. And what really got me was the people buying baby food. Some woman bought two cases. The first thing that popped in my mind was " Why the heck doesn't she get a Vitamix, she would save money in the long run " She had 7 children and would have more. Why buy cases of baby food when you can make it fresh. And the chips and the dips etc. And the poor Organic Section. Such a small section. BUT I GOT MY TEMPEH!!!! lol Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I made all my daughter's baby food. She is now 17. I didn't even have my 2 Vitamixer's then, just a ricer and a fork. I worked great. And we do follow the Bible for our eating and health information. Beverly Texas Re: Sprouts in traditional diet Hi all!!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 You know, I might just take my own advice and go and take out my bible and look at what people actually ate as meals. Of course they roasted it over a spit and didn't have ovens (or did they?). But they had plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and meat without any antibiotics or additives. I wonder what those days were actually like. Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 The good stuff in wine is called Resveratrol. You can buy this online, or even at GNC. Don't know if it does what it's purported to do. And it's not cheap. I even think you can buy it from Puritan's Pride. Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
