Nutrition and Physical Degeneration has been one of the revolutionizing books ever written in the world of health. This book is written by Dr. Weston Prince and it is all about his observations of different diets and nutrition from different cultures and cities.

A very impressive thing about Nutrition and Physical Degeneration is the extensive documentation of different kinds of degeneration that occurs when people following traditional diet programs switched into processed foods.

Dr. Prince and his wife traveled around the world during the 1920s to 1930s to observe different culture’s way of traditional eating before writing “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration”. They traveled through different places, such as New Zealand, Alaska, Canada, Peru, U.S., Australia and other countries and discovered the same thing – when people shift from traditional to modern diets, the people experiences harmful side effects to both their emotional and physical health.

According to Dr. Prince’s discovery, indigenous people become free from heart disease and cancer while preserving a strong immune system because they maintain healthy living with nutrition. He also discussed in the book how the next generation of people, which converted to modern diets, experienced a significant deterioration in their health.

A Food Guide Based on th

Nutrition and Physical Degeneration could help you understand and be aware of the consequences obtained from eating healthy foods. The basic principles that most primitive people described in this book showed that their diet included approximately five times the amount of calcium, water-soluble vitamins and important minerals, while containing over ten times fat-soluble vitamins from shellfish, meat organs and other sources.

Another significant observation by Dr. Prince is that both primitive mother and father followed a good nutritional program before conceiving a child. This would ensure a healthy offspring because the pregnant mother receives complete nutrients. During the primitive periods, pregnant and lactating women were given a special nutritional program that includes foods that are rich in fat-soluble vitamins A and D, which can be obtained from animal fats alone.

To keep a healthy diet plan, you must understand the principles stated in “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration”. You can be sure of living a healthy life for years to come by minimizing foods such as white sugar and flour, processed foods, partially hydrogenated and heated oils, pasteurized or homogenized dairy products, canned foods, caffeine and distilled alcohol, food preservatives, pork or foods sprayed with chemicals and artificial colorings and sweeteners.
