Quotes of the Episode:

"Check your shelf, find what doesn't nourish or serve you, toss it out. Refresh your choices!"— Saritah

"I say taking ownership of your health means incorporating living foods like ferments, raw milk, and quality meats. Focus on what you can add to your diet first." — Kristen Files

"When you cook at home, you select the ingredients. It's simple to avoid things not in line with your values."— Corey Dunn

"Muscle meat isn't enough. Balance it with connective tissue, amino acids from organ meats and bones. Support local farmers for deep nourishment."— Janine Farzin

"Discover your leader. Dive into the world of real food, fermentation, and bone broth. Elevate well-being, nurture your body, and witness self-healing." — Medea Galligan


The conversations on Wise Traditions, presented by the Weston A. Price Foundation, explore a path to well-being that feels almost forgotten. This isn't about the latest trends or synthetic solutions; it's a deep dive into the dietary patterns and living wisdom of ancestral communities who achieved remarkable physical health. Each episode brings forward voices-researchers, farmers, clinicians, and healers-who discuss practical applications of this knowledge for contemporary life. You'll hear detailed discussions on sourcing and preparing nutrient-dense foods, the role of traditional fats, the gut microbiome, and the profound connections between soil health and human health. The podcast operates from a core principle articulated by Dr. Weston A. Price himself: that true vitality comes from aligning with nature's laws, not attempting to supersede them. It’s for anyone questioning conventional dietary advice and seeking a more rooted, evidence-based approach to fitness and holistic wellness. Tune in for a consistently challenging and enriching perspective that redefines what it means to be truly nourished, drawing on centuries of human experience to inform our choices today.
