Guest guest Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Hi everyone, 2 new outstanding lectures by Masterjohn are now available from the Casco Bay Maine chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation <www.westonaprice.org> The lectures were given on the last weekend in July of 2008 in the Casco Bay region of Maine. Proceeds from the sales of these audio lectures are shared between the Casco Bay Maine Weston A. Price Foundation Chapter and the lecturer. This is our chapter's only fundraiser this year and all proceeds will be used to continue to educate our community about traditional nutrition, sustainable farming and other related topics.

Fact & Fiction About the Food Chain's Most Misunderstood Nutrient Was New York Times writer Taubes right when he asked " What if it's all been a big fat lie? " in regards to the widely held belief that saturated fat and cholesterol cause heart disease? Have we been misled by the medical establishment and the multi-billion dollar statin industry? Is the International Network of Cholesterol Skeptics - a group of physicians, other academicians and science writers from around the world - wrong in arguing that cholesterol and saturated fat do not cause heart disease? Or are the skeptics of the skeptics right? Is cholesterol really a villain? And what role do the current darlings of the nutrition world - the " essential " fatty acids - play in heart disease? In this lecture nutrition writer and researcher Masterjohn sorts through the tangled web of research and writings on the most vilified nutrient in the American diet. Don't miss this lucid expose! ---------------------------------------------------- LECTURE #2: Nutrient Deficiencies on a Vegetarian Diet A Case for Meat & Animal Fat in a Healthy Diet We are told that good nutrition comes from eating fruits and vegetables and that animal fats provide nothing but artery-clogging junk that will have us quickly on our way to a heart attack. We are also told that pre-formed vitamin A is toxic in relatively small quantities but that beta-carotene is safe in high quantities. Many vegetarians therefore believe that their diet provides them with a sure-fire way to live a long life free of disease. But is this " common knowledge " actually true? In this lecture nutrition writer and researcher Masterjohn sheds surprising light on this subject.
