Interview- Laurie Ledbetter and Lynn Razaitis from Weston A. Price Foundation PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 05 September 2007
Laynn Razaitis and Laurie Ledbetter joined me on the radio program.  They are co-facilitators of the local branch of the Weston A. Price Foundation.  Weston A. Price was a dentist, who in the 1930's studied indigenous groups of people to see if he could determine what was different about people who had dental problems like cavities and people did not.  He concluded by taking careful food and lifestyle histories that the fats and foods that people ate made an enormous difference in how healthy they are.  A group of people has grown up around the facts discussed in his book, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.

Lynn is currently studying traditional Chinese medicine ad Edgewood College of Oriental Medicine in Norcross, Georgia.  Laurie is a mom, who has been eating using these principles for the past 3 years and has seen amazing results in herself as well as her daughter.  She is currently working to launch a business selling traditional lacto-fermented vegetables.

This style requires that we eat healthy, organic, and as often as possible locally grown food.  There is an emphasis on eating good fats, which would include, butter, coconut oil, goose fat and the fats naturally found in grass fed animals.  Grass fed animals provide much more of the nutrients that we need in our bodies because the animals actually can store many of the nutrients in the fat of their bodies.  There also is an emphasis on making good nutritious broths from the bones and meat of animals as well as vegetables.  Raw milk is a part of eating healthily and fermentation of vegetables as well as dairy and fruits are also part of the idea that we need things that are as close to nature as possible to keep us healthy.
