About this deal
The primitive tribes, free from the dental caries and with perfectly formed dental arches were thriving on their native diets .
He found that their traditional diet, widely different in content depending on the area, equaled good health, including healthy teeth. I wish he would have spent more time rigorously documenting the exact diets of the groups he came in contact with. Isolating variables in human being living habits is next to impossible and why spend all your time trying to do that to cure sick people when instead you can go hunting for healthy people and learn from them? To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.S. between 1890 and the early 1920s — an era of rapid growth in the candy and soft drink industries. The pacific islanders and coastal natives got it from seafood and the Australian Aborigines and African tribes got it from small animals and insects. And what he found was that there was an incredibly low occurrence of tooth decay in people who didn’t eat highly processed food – pretty big finding – a revelation!
It’s quite depressing that this book was written so long ago, and obviously you see these organisations that make a lot of money out of food and medication, and the whole way that society is laid out, and they seem to have become more powerful and stronger, and people seem to be more submissive and more happy to give their health and wellbeing away, that’s quite sad.This is a really great book, it reads like a textbook so is hard to get through all of it and I had to skim through parts of it.
