I have to recommend... Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon. The first chapter of her book is so right on target that I feel a little guilty for taking her ideas. But what she pointed out is that independent producers of foodsuch as people who present us with meat, poultry, eggs and butterprovide the lowest profit margin in the industry. People who put out junk food...have an incredible return on invested capital because they are putting out low-cost items and making a very high profit.
Robert C. Atkins, MD
Author of The Atkins' New Diet Revolution
Nourishing Traditions is more than a cookbookit's an education that will lead you to "cook with pride," as you will know that you are giving your family the proper nourishment for a lifetime of vigorous good health. Now that is the real "joy of cooking!"
William Campbell Douglass, MD
Author of The Milk Book
Nourishing Traditions...is a work of genius...richly encyclopedic.... Run, don't walk to the nearest phone and order Nourishing Traditions.

This cookbook is unique.... Nourishing Traditions throws down the gauntlet to challenge the "Diet Dictocrats."
Beatrice Trum Hunter
Author of Consumer Beware
As a convinced vegetarian of some 25 years, I opened Sally Fallon's book to her many meat recipes and immediately closed it again. But then I figured that there must be more to it than that. There is.... I was surprised at the wealth of information to help me (even as a vegetarian) make better food choices and prepare the ones I have chosen to get the most nourishment from them.
Peter Hinderberger, MD, Past President
Physicians Association for Anthroposophical Medicine
I figured it would be only a matter of time before people would realize that lowfat and low-cholesterol diets were highly overrated for healthfulness. Now comes a cookbook author and food writer who is well aware of the politically correct nutrition misinformation, but who also has the knowledge and courage to challenge its assumptions.

Technology is a generous benefactor. To those who have wisely used his gifts he has bestowed freedom from drudgery; freedom to travel; freedom from the discomforts of cold, heat and dirt; and freedom from ignorance, boredom and oppression. But father technology has not brought us freedom from disease. Chronic illness in industrialized nations has reached epic proportions because we have been dazzled by his stepchildrenfast foods, fractionated foods, convenience foods, packaged foods, fake foods, embalmed foods, ersatz foodsall the bright baubles that fill up the shelves at our grocery stores, convenience markets, vending machines and even health food stores.
The premise of this book is that modern food choices and preparation techniques constitute a radical change from the way man has nourished himself for thousands of years and, from the perspective of history, represent a fad that not only has severely compromised his health and vitality but may well destroy him; and that the culinary traditions of our ancestors, and the food choices and preparation techniques of healthy nonindustrialized peoples, should serve as the model for contemporary eating habits, even and especially during this modern technological age.
The first modern researcher to take a careful look at the health and eating habits of isolated traditional societies was a dentist, Dr. Weston Price. During the 1930's, Dr. Price traveled the world over to observe population groups untouched by civilization, living entirely on local foods. While the diets of these peoples differed in many particulars, they contained several factors in common. Almost without exception, the groups he studied ate liberally of seafood or other animal proteins and fats in the form of organ meats and dairy products; they valued animal fats as absolutely necessary to good health; and they ate fats, meats, fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and whole grains in their whole, unrefined state. All primitive diets contained some raw foods, of both animal and vegetable origin.
