Yesterday, the Sustainable Living Show with host Jon Butts interviewed the President of the Weston A. Price Foundation, Sally Fallon Morell, and myself on a wide variety of health and wellness topics.
Included in the one hour conversation is dialogue on the travels of Dr. Weston A. Price, the dangers of high fructose corn syrup, why sustainability means having animals on a farm, why raw milk is the best nutrient dense food for growing children, and how cloudy thinking and morning fogginess is caused by a nutrient poor diet.
The best part of the interview is when Sally debates a couple of die-hard vegetarians who called in live, on the air!
For those of you who weren’t able to listen to the interview live, I’ve included a podcast for you to listen to here or download to your iPod or MP3 player.
What part of the interview did you enjoy most?  What did you think of the back and forth debate with the folks who called in to the show?
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Love this podcast! We’ve been following a traditional diet for some time. But I appreciate this condensed version of the traditional diet belief system. We grow as many vegetables as we can to sustain us, we raise chickens for their eggs and manure, but the cod liver oil has been my own personal biggest asset. We live in the NW and my vit. D level was tested at 12 (out of 100). After being on FCLO for a year my vit. D level became 55. The doctor didn’t know that I’d switched from his synthetic prescription but said,”Keep doing what you’re doing”.
Also, thank you so much for bringing the Biblical commands into light. Many Christians shy away from “green” issues. When, I believe, we should be the greatest defenders of the earth and what God gave us.
what i love is how sally patiently waits for both women to make their comments before responding, but they are super interrupt-y and don’t let her finish before jumping in and trying to talk over her. i thought she did a great job handling them.
Wow. What a great interview. Sally is so well spoken. Non confrontational. Very easy to listen to. I really enjoyed the conversation on bringing back hemp for industrial use, but that the oil should be avoided. Great share Sarah. Thanks.
Elaine, I think that’s what I said. No matter how cold or wet you get, unless you are exposed to the virus at the time, it will not make you sick.
Thank you for the great radio interview and all the work you do.
I totally agree about Christians only eating humanely raised meats. It should be preached from the pulpits!
Wow, Sally ROCKED it with those debates, very impressive!!

Re the vegetarian who said animals are aware of impending death: We raise meat rabbits. The ones up for harvesting that day are altogether in a cage and everything is done right in front of them. While we are processing one their siblings are chewing on sticks and grooming themselves. Frightened rabbits will cower in the corner, these show no concern whatsoever even though they are within a few feet of the activity. They have no idea they’re next.
Interesting show, thanks!
There is no question that many animals know and fear impending death. Nature shows demonstrate this as the awful sounds of prey being chased or having been caught are heard.
Also, I used to to walk by two farms every morning, one on either side of the road. One day I noticed that the horses and other animals on the right were all gathered at the fence looking over at the farm on the right. I glanced over and saw a butcher processing the beef over there. The animals were noticeably agitated, but quiet as they watched. It was eerie.
I am a WAP eater and have no problem eating animals, as the Bible does forbid it. But they do feel and express fear.
That was awesome! Thank you so much for sharing!
I very much enjoyed listening to this today. You are both so well spoken and know your stuff!
