Longevity and Nutrition
Library

Having a healthy population
makes focusing on healing sickness far less important. And it is far easier to
prevent degeneration than to remedy it. This library collection is concerned
with the question "what makes people healthy?" Prior to WWII, why did some
peoples in some places on Earth enjoy exceptional life spans with far greater
well-being? In this collection we offer books and other materials that explored
these questions.

"Cheshire
Medical Testament." With additional testimony and letters of Albert Howard,
Sir Robert McCarrsion and Lionel Picton.

In 1939 a group of medical doctors in Cheshire, England, published a
testament in which they condemned modern medicine as a failure and pointed to
nutrition as the only true source of public health. Sir Albert Howard and
Robert McCarrsion also spoke at a meeting regarding this testament. All the
letters and documents are here presented. See below: Yellowlees.

get the highest form of animal energy from food, With Recipes for Preparation,

Perhaps this book is not underpinned with the most up to date and correct
science of human digestion, still, getting interesting raw food recipes is
always valuable. Many of the recipes make me wish I could get unpasteurized
whole milk and cream. Many thanks are owed to Linda Sheard of the UK, who

A post WWII adventurer on a one-man mission to save a small bit of the
world from Communism, Clark organises his own one-person Peace Corps unit in
Hunzaland a decade ahead of JFK. Clark is a geologist by profession. The book
is filled with detailed observations that prove as revealing of the mid-20th
century American mentality as they are of the Hunzakut and of Hunzaland. To

Tracks down all the threads, re-asks all the questions, re-examines all

superior health. An excellent job! Arnold DeVries was an American researcher,
writer and hygienist, who in the 1950's changed from being a fruitarian, as he
had advocated in his first book, Fountain of Youth, 1946, to having a
different understanding of optimum human nutrition, as expressed in
(Primitive Man and His Food, 1952, Elixir of Life, 1952). These

In de reeks van de werken van Weston A. Price, roept Nourishing Traditions
veganisten en vegetariers op om een bepaalde mate van dierlijk voedsel - zoals
ook goede biologische melk en eieren - te beschouwen als essentieel voor het

streven naar biologisch voedsel van goede vruchtbare mineraalrijke bodem, en
dit op de juiste manier bereiden. Men kan uit dit boek leren om betere
voedselkeuzes te maken. Met toestemming voor de internetpublicatie van Sally

The story of the hidden paradise of Shangri-La, this novel was based

was based on. Like virtually all such derivations, the book is a much richer

For most people changing from eating a SAD diet (Standard
Australian/American Diet) to the idea dietary can be a decades-long struggle
against well-entrenched habits. The first step toward making a major
improvement is sometimes called a "transitional diet." That is what Lief is
offering in this book—a way for someone who has previously taken no thought to
what they eat and drink to gently ease wean habits and expectations on to
healthier eating. Not the ultimate in health; just better. A small and easy to

Lorimer,
E.O. (1939) Language Hunting In The Karakoram. George Allen &
Unwin Ltd., London.

Mrs. E.O. Lorimer and her husband, David Lorimer, journeyed to Hunza in the
late 1930s, spending a year in residence there. The Lorimers studied the
language(s) of the region, and later wrote the definitive book on the Hunza
language. Mrs. Lorimer also busied herself with learning all she could about
the life and customs of ordinary Hunza folk. Being an accomplished linguist
herself, she was able to freely communicate with Hunza people. Her book is
full of anecdotal information covering everything from cropping cycles to
childrearing, food customs and dietaries, handling social malfactors (few) and
having parties and dances. The rigors of the trek into Hunza and the Lorimer's
difficulties obtaining any additional supplies well-illustrates the isolation
of these people. Also accompanying this story are over 40 magnificent black
and white photographs. This may be the finest book describing actual life in
Hunza at a time before WWII, when Hunza still resembled the place McCarrsion
so admired some 25 years earlier. Mrs. Lorimer was also a most admirable
person of the highest integrity. Her reportage should be taken as being about
as accurate a rendering of another culture as a person can make based on the
short acquaintance of a single year's residence Downloads as a PDF of 1.5 mb.

McCarrison, Sir
Robert, M.D. Various Papers, including his best known, (1944) Nutrition
and National Health. Faber and Faber, London.

In 1936, McCarrison delivered a three part lecture series to the
Royal Society of Arts, in which he demonstrated to an audience (mainly) of
medical doctors that the creation of near-perfect human health was easily
accomplishable, simply by decent nutrition provided over time. His evidence:
rat-feeding studies he performed in India, where populations of rats were fed
the same human dietaries the various areas of India ate and developed
corresponding states of health or disease as were experienced by the humans
living in these areas. His revelations had little effect on the medical
community, however. Also find here several shorter McCarrsion pieces in the
same vein. OUT OF PRINT.

This book is offered with pride. Rendering it into a PDF represented
considerable labour; the book is worthy of considerable effort. In it, in
formal medical language, illustrated with photo-micrographs of autopsy tissue
samples, charts, graphs and tables, McCarrison details animal studies he
conducted in India. Using pidgeons and monkeys he created disease conditions
by restriction of vitamin intake and drew analogies to human ailments. The
book also offers frank and simple recommendations for human dietary
improvement and the elimination of many diseases thereby. Most of it is
comprehensible to a reasonably well-educated layman. Downloads as a PDF of

Pierce,
Innes and Lucy Crocker. The Peckham Experiment: a study of the living
structure of society. Edinburgh and London: Scottish Academic Press,
1985.

This passionately and sensitively written inspirational work is often
mentioned in British organic farming and gardening books published in the 40s
and 50s. Innes Pierce inspired, set up and ran Peckham Centre during the 30s
in London. It closed during WWII, and reopened for a few years after the war.
But the Labour Government's hostility forced its permanent closure. Peckham
Centre helped create and sustain (at very low cost) a positive social culture
for urban dwellers that made enormous improvements in their happiness and
physical well being. The book contains a biologist's explanation of the
workings of the human family as the essential homo sapiens survival
entity and shows how to greatly strengthen the family against the modern
economic forces causing its dissolution. Thanks are due to John Fielder of
Cairns, Queensland, for the lend of this book. This library has been seeking a
copy of Pierce's follow up, The Quality of Life, 1979, the story of
post war Peckham. This title is unavailable through the Library of Congress

Price,
Weston A., D.D.S. Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. New York: Paul
B. Hoeber, Inc., 1939.

In the 1930s Dr. Price travelled to isolated regions finding people who,
because of their proper nutrition, enjoyed general good health, long life and
virtual immunity to dental disease. Price travelled to remote parts of
Scotland and Switzerland, Canada, Alaska, Peru, Africa, Down Under, etc., and
found similarly healthy (and isolated) peoples who did not partake of the
industrial food system. Contains remarkable photographs that show the
comparison between what healthy bodies and physically degenerated bodies look
like far better than words ever could. No one who spends time studying these
pictures will ever view the health and appearance of their friends,
neighbours, or their own face in the morror in the same way. Currently
available in print at a reasonable price, this book should be on the shelf of
every student of holistic health. To buy a reprint of this book contact the Price-Pottenger Nutrition

lovingly bringing them up in the healthiest possible way. Along with the
works(s) of Dr's Price and Pottenger in the US, the story of the Hopewood
children is unique in the annals of medicine. Particularly in-so-far as with
all its outstanding and confirmed results in the superior health of the
children to that of the population in general, and children in particular. The
fact that it is still largely ignored some sixty odd years later is a massive
indictment of our present day health system, where it should be required
reading by every man, woman and child in our society, particularly those
contemplating parenthood.
