Around a month or so ago Sally Fallon Morell, President o the Weston A. Price Foundation, reviewed Robb Wolf's book and gave it a "Thumbs Down". What's up with her? Wasn't the response to her President's Message from this past June enough to put her in her place? I had parts of a post together at that time, but since the full letter wasn't publicly available at the time, and who knows what else was going on, I never published it. I was going to augment that and include with this, but perhaps another time ... it got too long and convoluted. Some day ... I make no promises though. In any case, my link here is now to the full letter for anyone interested, but to sum up she wanted to clear up some myths about WAPF:
- It's not high protein, most do best on 10-15% protein and WAPF diet is small amounts of fatty animal protein, including organ meats, with each meal ... emphasis on fat, while high lean protein depletes Vitamin A.
- It's not low carb. Some of Dr. Price's studied cultures ate quite high carb diets.
- It's not paleo.
