Weston A. Price Foundation ~ The Weston A.

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.  I will refer to WAPF and its research a lot in my nutrition posts.

Sherri Tenpenny ~ An osteopath and researcher ~ here is what she writes about herself and her passion:  “After more the 7,500 hours of research, I have unearthed information from medical literature and government documents that exposes associations between vaccines and chronic illness.  Inoculation, in the name of health, may be eliminating viruses and infectious outbreaks, but what is the trade off?  Skyrocketing rates of asthma, allergies, diabetes and autism are occurring in our children.  Vaccines disrupt the immune system and they can play a role in chronic disease.  This association must be examined.  Low infection rates – the elimination of chickenpox, mumps, and pertussis – should not be the only measure of children’s health.  High vaccination rates should not the the primary goal of public health officials.”  Visit her website to find more vaccine information that you won’t get at your pediatrician’s office.
