Holy crap, I just finished reading the oiling of america. Fascinating stuff.

Isn't it a thought-provoking article?

Another good one to read - not on that site - is Cereal Grains: Humanity’s Double-Edged Sword.

I have been on that Oiling America site all night. Have you read the stuff on raw milk? How is it that this stuff isnt common knowledge?

I will read the grains article next.

I don't know why a lot of things aren't common knowledge.

Okay, other than politics and greed.

Probably because diets aren't profitable and supplements are. It was something I read in Eat Stop Eat that should have been blatantly obvious but never dawned on me; why would corporate America just tell us to eat less? All that does is hurt profits.

Weston A. Price Foundation

for those not familiar

it is a great source of nutritional information
although i cant say i agree with EVERYTHING. then again, i dont have any real studies of any kind to back up my disagreements

Ben dur, if you find something you think is wrong, post it up and we'll see if we can substantiate it- or refute it.

danzik, no shit hey?

i eat veggies...

from my understanding the weston a price foundation doesnt find them very essential..

 

[Ben dur]

as i research more and more...

maybe i should get slapped for that misinterpretation

almost every one of their exampler meals includes a cup of steamed broccoli or something similar

Yeah, from what I am getting from them, they are pro-greens, just anti-vegetarian.
