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?

I hope Sally sent more than a few curious Vegetarians to the resource section of the WAPF website! I can’t wait to meet her at the Vancouver Raw Milk symposium in April!

So much great info. I am so indebted to all the great work that WAPF has done, and the treasure trove of practical application info you, Sarah, have made available to people like me. Thank you so much.

I went to the beach over the weekend and sat in the outdoor jacuzzi while a wet fog was rolling in off the gulf (it was really cool to watch even though it was kind of a dumb thing to do). Got a little bit chilled and was coughing during the interview. No worries. It’s gone this evening. Gotta love that cod liver oil 🙂
Sarah
Sorry Sarah, but I love what the cod liver oil does not the cod liver oil : )!
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
You got that right. If I wasn’t taking my cod liver oil regularly, that chill probably would have ended up being the flu.
Lynda
I’m new here, and you made me curious what kind of cod liver oil you take. I’ve been curious to find the differences between fermented and regular c.l. Oil.
Thanks!
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Only the fermented cod liver oil is worth taking. The other brands are all heated at very high heat with nutrients and the delicate omega 3’s destroyed. See my resources page in the header of this blog and go to supplements section for several vendors that sell it at competitive prices.

Ummm . . . Can’t get a cold from being chilled and you can’t get ‘flu from a cold. If you are not exposed to a cold virus at the time, doesn’t matter how cold and wet you get. And a cold might move into pneumonia, but not ‘flu.
I know – nitpicky, but it’s true! 🙂
elaine
yes, BUT the cold and damp combo can leave your system sucseptible….accordiing to traditional chinese medicine. therefore if the bug is in your system or you are exposed soon after the chill it will be very easy for the virus to overcome your system.

We love FCLO too. My 3-year-old fell and hit his mouth and knocked a tooth a bit loose yesterday. I gave him a big dose of FCLO with extra butter oil and he woke up saying it doesn’t really hurt anymore and it looks much better. (I also offered clove tea for the pain.)
Plus it knocks out colds and flu easily. My daughter (almost 5) and I were both kind of feeling a bit blah yesterday and this morning. Gave her lots of FCLO last night and now she’s fine. Wasn’t anymore than just a day of needing to rest. That seems to happen every few months…a day of rest and then fine, which probably would turn into quite a bit more if we didn’t take our FCLO.
Sara
Hey, what dose do you give her? How much is “lots”? I’m giving my twins FCLO every day – just 1/2 teaspoon.
barb
that’s my question too. I give my toddlers nortic naturals cod liver oil for children bc I am unsure what an appropriate dose of the FCLO is to give them.
Teresa
That was very good! Enjoyed the little debate with the vegetarian. I really hope she goes on the WAPF site. I find it hard to believe that someone that has been vegetarian for so long without eating some form of animal product like eggs or etc could be that healthy.
Keep up the good work Sarah!
PS was that u coughing? Try cayenne, ginger, honey, raw acv,- I have had that same cough! I am doing that tonight no matter how bad it taste! LOL
Denise
Vegetarians do include animal products- it is vegans that don’t.
