The Weston A. Price Foundation is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charity founded in
1999 to disseminate the research of nutrition pioneer Dr. Weston Price,
whose studies of isolated nonindustrialized peoples established the
parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of
human diets. Dr. Price's research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect
physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they
consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators
found exclusively in animal fats.
The Foundation is dedicated to restoring nutrient-dense foods to the human
diet through education, research and activism. It supports a number of
movements that contribute to this objective including accurate nutrition
instruction, organic and biodynamic farming, pasture-feeding of livestock,
community-supported farms, honest and informative labeling, prepared
parenting and nurturing therapies. Specific goals include establishment of
universal access to clean, certified raw milk and a ban on the use of soy
formula for infants.
The Foundation seeks to establish a laboratory to test nutrient content of
foods, particularly butter produced under various conditions; to conduct
research into the "X" Factor, discovered by Dr. Price; and to determine the
effects of traditional preparation methods on nutrient content and
availability in whole foods.
The board and membership of the Weston A. Price Foundation stand united in
the belief that modern technology should be harnessed as a servant to the
wise and nurturing traditions of our ancestors rather than used as a force
destructive to the environment and human health; and that science and
knowledge can validate those traditions.
The Foundation's quarterly journal, Wise Traditions in Food, Farming, and
the Healing Arts, is dedicated to exploring the scientific validation of
dietary, agricultural and medical traditions throughout the world. It
features illuminating and thought-provoking articles on current scientific
research; human diets; non-toxic agriculture; and holistic therapies. The
journal also serves as a reference for sources of foods that have been
conscientiously grown and processed.
