📣 This is a special episode for Podcasthon! 🎙️This episode is dedicated to the Weston A. Price Foundation.
In this enlightening episode of Real Food Mental Health, we welcome Sally Fallon Morell, president of the Weston A. Price Foundation. Sally shares the wisdom of Dr. Weston A. Price, a pioneering researcher who studied traditional diets across the world. Her insights shed light on the power of nutrient-dense foods and ancestral eating practices for achieving optimal mental and physical health. We specifically discuss anxiety, depression, autism, fats, and gut health.
The Wisdom of Traditional Diets: Sally explains how traditional diets, rich in whole, unprocessed foods, promote well-being. These diets emphasize animal fats, organ meats, and raw dairy, all of which are nutrient-dense and key to supporting brain health and vitality.
The Importance of Fat-Soluble Vitamins: Sally emphasizes the crucial role of vitamins A, D, and K2 — nutrients abundant in traditional foods. These vitamins play vital roles in immune function, bone health, and neurological well-being.
Rethinking Modern Food Practices: Sally warns against the dangers of industrialized food products, such as processed oils and refined carbohydrates, which she connects to rising rates of chronic disease and mental health challenges.
The Role of Nutrient Density: The Weston A. Price Foundation advocates for nutrient-dense foods, particularly organ meats, seafood, and properly prepared grains, as the cornerstone of a thriving body and mind.
Prioritize traditional animal fats such as butter, lard, and tallow for cooking.
Choose grass-fed meats, pasture-raised eggs, and raw dairy for their superior nutritional profiles.
Seek out local, organic sources of produce and animal products to ensure nutrient density and environmental sustainability.
Sally’s message is clear: by embracing traditional wisdom and nourishing our bodies with whole, nutrient-dense foods, we can support vibrant mental and physical health. Tune in to this episode to learn practical ways to incorporate these principles into your everyday life.
