The smell of fresh baked cupcakes
I woke up this morning to the smell of fresh baked cupcakes. (True story)
Only no one was baking cupcakes in my kitchen.
The human body can be really sensitive to certain aromas.
The human body can be really sensitive to certain chemicals too.
Realizing this, food science technologists, work hard to get things just right in your favorite foods in order to really mess you up.
It is easy to point a finger at all the slobs living on skid row in Los Angeles (a real place) or all the zombies in the Tenderloin in San Francisco addicted to chemicals that are killing them.
But are you or I all that much better?
A nation of slobs and zombies addicted to chemicals slowly killing them. You know exactly what foods you are addicted to, that have the perfect “tooth,” the perfect “mouthfeel,” the perfect aroma, and didn’t come from your kitchen.
And that perfect “natural” aroma might be beaver anal gland secretion.
Castoreum is a real thing. It comes from beaver butts. It ends up in things sold as “natural” in the grocery store. It smells delightful, and by extension tastes delightful. I guess there’s an argument to be made for why it is natural. It comes from an animal, only no normal person trying to eat “all-natural” food sources would come up with that as a natural thing. That is because it is such a contorted idea that it takes years of training in order to call weird food additives such as beaver butt secretions “natural.”
It is actually relatively easy to avoid things like castoreum…
If I know the farmer, if I know the butcher, if I know the cook, then I know what is in my food.
If I don’t, then I don’t.
The Weston A Price Foundation is kind of neat, because when you are feeling like eating your favorite store-bought good, filled with addictive beaver butt secretions, the Weston A Price Foundation is sort of like a nurturing mother telling you to go eat your vegetables, first.
Only she wants them slathered with grass-fed butter and chased down by a perfectly cooked hunk of meat and a side and dessert out of the Nourishing Traditions cookbook (all free of beaver butt secretions).
Over the past few days I have been mentioning my appreciation for the Weston A. Price Foundation, which is built upon the work of a pioneering American dentist (of the same name) from the 1920s who realized that it was not modern dentistry that caused people to have healthy teeth.
He tried to figure out what it was.
What he determined was that it was largely dependent on how they ate.
Did they eat a western diet of heavily processed foods?
Alternately, did they eat a mostly traditional diet of unprocessed foods or lightly processed foods?
The condition of the teeth suggests the condition of the rest of the body.
The Weston A. Price Foundation exists to help you address issues from the root of the problem — your diet, and their solutions are very effective at accomplishing that.
When you sign up for my upcoming The Real Anthony Fauci book discussion, you will get a gift from me of a two year membership to the Weston A Price foundation (a $70 value).
Consider it my investment in you becoming a stronger, more well-informed warrior in this fight.
Consider it my investment in you thriving even more.
