Hi Jonathan, Thanks for the interesting, excellent information you share with "us seekers"--I truly appreciate it. Dr. Mercola at Mercola.com has a very interesting FREE weekly newsletter and is a prolific, unselfish writer and marvelous Doctor with a large Clinic near Chicago. His books and info on his NO-GRAIN diet comes close to your's & Sol's description. Audrey & I (each 81) are adding this diet to our health program and enjoying good results.

Britten [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, November 12, 2004 2:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: CS>diet I was keenly interested in a famous book by Weston Price, a DDS who undertook worldwide studies of nutrition on peoples eating traditional diets or moving toward refined diets. It is a fascinating book. In a nutshell, he found that peoples with dramatically differing diets all enjoyed splendid dental and physical health -- from 100% meat eaters to almost exclusively grain and dairy eaters to mostly vegetarians. All thrived on their multifarious native diets. The one consistent observation: when these peoples started to eat refined foods -- white flour and sugar especially -- their dental health went to hell, and maxillofacial changes could be seen in the first generation of children born to the parents on the new diet, suggesting not genetic effects of course but direct nutritional influences on fetal development. I highly recommend the book, the title of which does not come to mind. Check Weston Price on Amazon: you will find it. I think it is Health and Human Nutrition.
