Campaign for Real Milk
Back in the '20s, Americans could buy fresh raw whole milk, real clabber and buttermilk, luscious naturally yellow butter, fresh farm cheeses and cream in various colors and thicknesses. Today's milk is accused of causing everything from allergies to heart disease to cancer, but when Americans could buy Real Milk, these diseases were rare. In fact, a supply of high quality dairy products was considered vital to American security and the economic well being of the nation. What's needed today is a return to humane, non-toxic, pasture-based dairying and small-scale traditional processing, in short, a "Campaign for Real Milk".
NTPTalk
NTPtalk represents a national community of Nutritional Therapy Practitioners dedicated to spreading the word about our unique nutritional paradigm. Here you will find articles and recipes for promoting health and vitality with whole foods.
The Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation
The Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation (PPNF) provides guidance for the reversal of modern "civilized" dietary trends, which promote disease and physical & mental degeneration, through the dissemination of the ancestral wisdom of pre-industrial societies and through modern scientific validation of the principles of sound nutrition.
Weston A. Price Foundation
The Weston A. Price Foundation is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charity founded in 1999 to disseminate the research of nutrition pioneer Dr. Weston Price, whose studies of isolated nonindustrialized peoples established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets. Dr. Price's research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators found exclusively in animal fats.
