www.bantransfats.com is a US based campaign site that is focused on the issue of trans-fats. The site unfortunately (in my opinion) expresses opinions that saturated fats are unhealthy.
Stop Trans Fats is another campaign website, with some very up to date information about interestified fats (fully hydrogenated oil mixtures), and also MSG and arspartine issues.
www.coconutdiet.com is a good site devoted to the health benefits of unprocessed coconut oil. Although sometimes a bit like a miracle cure, they are backed up by some great scientists like Dr Mary Enig.
Know Your Fats (Book by Dr Mary Enig)- Dr Mary Enig is to nutrition what Galileo is to astronomy!
Oiling of America A very interesting article about the vegetable oil industry and the politics of nutrition: Originally published in Nexus Magazine in two parts, Nov/Dec 1998 and Feb/Mar 1999.
Health Risks from Processed Foods and Trans Fats Part I: Interview With Dr. Mary Enig
Health Risks from Procesed Foods and Trans Fats Parts II and III : Interview with Dr. Mary Enig
Very informative interviews with Dr Mary Enig, these do get technical in places.
www.westonaprice.org is a fantastic mixture of natural thinking with scientific thought. This organisation has a strong ideology that natural and traditional foods provide us the best nutrition. While this may sound uncontroversial, it does not take much reading to realise that what they think is natural is far removed from what many trendy nutritionists consider is natural. Some alternative health theories published on this site do unfortunately cross the line into pseudoscience, but this site is, I believe very solid scientifically in the area of nutrition.
www.frot.co.nz/dietnet/index.htm has some very good information modern diet theories and a good article about consuming and choosing dairy products.

Cholesterol is not the evil molecule that it is made out to be! High cholesterol levels in the blood-stream may indicate the body is under stress, but there are good arguments that it is the bodies defence mechanism! Checkout this site for the other view of cholesterol.
The Truth About Cholesterol
Cholesterol Skeptic - Alistair Wise, has an interesting dossier about cholesterol. To understand the relationship (or non relationship) between fats and cholesterol this is the place to go. The misnomers about good and bad cholesterol are debunked, and the cholesterol theory quickly becomes a sham!

It is hard to imagine how much passion soy beans generate! These guys really hate soybeans, and I mean really hate it, and not just the horrible taste!!
http://www.thincs.org
This is a scientific forums for cholesterol skeptics, ran by Dr Uffe Ravnskov, this site is for scientifically literate people, and goes over my head at times!
http://www.thincs.org/public.htm
If you need scientific articles and studies that show the other side of the cholesterol debate, then they are probably listed here. If it wasn't for this list, then this website would be nothing but some delusional rave. |

Interesting site.
I think you will find the oil mentioned in this article and listed on your pyramid is "borage" not "borriage". It grows prolifically in my garden - once you've got it growing the seeds spread and plants pop up everywhere. This year much of it is close to concrete paths so I hope to harvest an amount of seed that I can use in similar fashion to flax seeds.
If you have reservations about some articles appearing on Weston Price site perhaps it might be better to ignore rather than comment as you have. To me after 30 years of searching for the truth I feel it would be a pity if anyone approached WPA via yours with a preconceived notion that some of it was unreliable.
Alternatively if you still wish to retain your comment perhaps it would be fairer if you quoted an example to support your comment.
As you obviously appreciate there is just so much propaganda and misinforamtion overwhelming people that it seems a pity to be negative (albeit only slightly)about a source that is doing so much to try and turn back the tide.
I am extremely grateful that nearly 5 years ago I adopted a WP type eating regime and now at 63 I can attest that it has done wonders for my health and stamina.
I have written quite extensively to politicians, TV producers, newspapers and the like over the last few years and and would be quite happy to copy these to you if you are interested. I have never missed having a letter published in "HB Today" and no one has ever written in contradiction - one wonders how many people ever act on the information in the letters which usually quote a website or book. |

Bad spelling - I plead guilty!!
Yes, Weston A Price is indeed the best source for nutritional information I know of, and if you want to believe 100% of what is there, you could do yourself very little wrong!
Only item on Weston A Price I definitely do not support is articles supporting Magnetic Pain relief, which I believe is a load of croc.The articles about it do not convince me otherwise! I am also cautious about the Weston A Price Websites advice to avoid vaccines. However I do agree that immunisations should be more thoroughly assessed than they currently are!
I most definetly support the Weston A Price Cause, and call myself a WAP devotee!! |

Sorry, but I do not wish to get involved in supporting any commercial products or claims.
I know nothing about your product, however I do not believe anyone should rely on a pill to correct metabolic problems. Ony a fully nutrient-dense diet in my opinion is the best, safest and long-term effective means of correcting metabolic disorders.
Your comment can remain, as an information resource, but I will warn my readers to remain very skeptical about any claims made on your website. |

| I realise this is a political website but your petition should include the option 'Do not drink milk products, as many of us don't. |
