I didn't mean that his language was politically incorrect (though it may be, I don't really keep up with that) but more that the idea that our dental problems are nutritional isn't a politically correct idea.Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253120851598570692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2776297020223769372.post-62738243780538471782010-01-26T17:21:13.019-07:002010-01-26T17:21:13.019-07:00I would agree that Dr. Price's book is not PC ...I would agree that Dr. Price's book is not PC in terms of the language he uses, but you could say it is PC in another way--it completely discredits the notion that "mixing races" causes degeneration in the resulting offspring, or that genes cause degeneration in the first place.<br /><br />After hearing about his work I learned about the pellagra epidemic in the South at the beginning of the twentieth century. After doing a little digging to find out what pellagra does, I suddenly understood why hateful people so often joke about Southerners marrying their sisters and about "crackers" being "inbred."<br /><br />It wasn't genetics. It wasn't "inbreeding." They were starved, with effects far-reaching into the next two or three generations.<br /><br />If more people had listened to Dr. Price, maybe we would have matured more in terms of racial relations (and maybe class relations as well) in the United States by now.

So much to learn, so little time. I agree with thecelluliteanalyst, I want to ask everyone from other countries what they ate growing up. Actually, I often do and am fascinated by what I hear-almost always in-line with Weston Price's work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2776297020223769372.post-22330949614272671472010-01-14T19:15:59.862-07:002010-01-14T19:15:59.862-07:00Thanks for the link!

It's just so life changing. I also developed an uncontrollable curiosity to ask people from other countries what they used to eat growing up. It's made for some very amusing conversations, and the other Americans in the group are always so surprised that it's not uncommon to drink soured milk or raw meats. The world is such a fascinating place!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073281099382894768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2776297020223769372.post-44520521492440808992009-10-22T15:25:17.151-06:002009-10-22T15:25:17.151-06:00For some reason your posts haven't been coming...For some reason your posts haven't been coming through on my reader, so I've missed a bunch.
