Will you be at the Weston Price Conference?

If you are reading this, then there’s a good chance that you already know about the Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF). 

The WAPF’s goal is to provide accurate, scientifically-backed information about health and nutrition. Its philosophy is that you can heal your body and maintain good health by sourcing quality, properly-raised, nourishing, traditional foods from small farmers. 

Dr. Weston A. Price (1870-1948) was a dentist. In the search for the cause of tooth decay, he studied people who had nearly perfect teeth - isolated non-industrialized people. This ultimately led to a worldwide intensive study of nutrition and lifestyle.

Dr. Price found that a traditional nutrient-dense diet gives the body everything it needs to thrive. In today’s world, these are foods sourced from small farmers, that are naturally raised and properly produced. These whole foods date back thousands of years - raw cultured dairy, grass-fed meat, healthy animal fats, fermented foods, and properly prepared grains and beans.

If you’d like to learn more about the WAPF, you can certainly visit the WAPF website. 

Better yet, you can attend their upcoming 2018 Wise Traditions Conference in Baltimore from November 16-18. You can meet the farmer, two on-farm staff, and myself there!

I attended the Wise Traditions Conference last year in Minneapolis. It exceeded my expectations for what a conference could be. 

First, the food was absolutely amazing - all sourced from small farms and prepared by professional chefs. I’m talking raw cheesecake, organ meatloaf, raw panna cotta, varieties of raw cheese, juicy roasts, and seasonal veggies. Our farmer donated A LOT of food to this year’s conference.

Second, the seminars were conducted by people with incredible backgrounds. They went in depth on topics like disrupting the trend of chronic disorders, healing cancer naturally, aging gracefully, surviving in a toxic world, glyphosate, vaccines, and childhood disease. In comparison to reading books and online articles, you can ask questions directly to the source of the info, and you can converse with like-minded folks afterwards. 

Third, the vendors were everything I would actually buy. From tallow balm to infrared saunas to pork rinds to quality books to grass-fed gelatin. Lots of things to sample, and you can most likely talk to the actual farmer or producer in person.

I hope you can make it to the conference. It’s not too late to sign up. If you can’t make it, you can watch for the newsletter follow-up after the event.
