455: Lost Wisdom Of The Tribes

Weston A. Price Foundation w/ Hilda Labrada Gore
About this episode

The Karen tribe in Thailand. The Daasanach in Ethiopia. The Mount Hagen festival in Papua New Guinea. Mary Ruddick, a nutritionist, researcher, and adventurer, describes what she learned during her field research among indigenous people groups this summer. She goes over what buoys good health and what weakens it, the traditions we would do well to emulate, and the modern conveniences we should eschew. She also describes her "throne of health" framework for optimizing our health, wherever we may live.
