Dr. Weston Price, as explained previously, was a dentist in the 1930's with an intense curiosity about why all of a sudden his
white (and probably other) patients were more sickly with a mouthful of dental decay in the adults and children with crooked and crowded teeth. He wondered - did it have anything to do with the new-fangled diet of white flour, white sugar and hydrogenated oils? Processed, canned, and devitalized foods of commerce?
So he embarked on an adventure to study the world's healthiest peoples. The ones still eating their traditional diets (as explained previously) were healthy and vibrant, with physical, mental and moral perfection. They were in isolated locations - there was only a hiking trail into the Swiss mountain village. But modern foods were encroaching, and their health was going in the dumps like all the Americans were. Price took a new-fangled invention with him and he and his wife took pictures, meticulous documentation and produced this research.
