Primal nutrition : paleolithic and ancestral diets for optimal health / Ronald F. Schmid. - 208 pages ; 22 cm

The human body's innate mechanisms for healing and immunity extend beyond the mending of cuts and broken bones or recovery from colds and flu. Given the foods we evolved to thrive on, foods our ancestors knew well, the body can naturally prevent and overcome a host of degenerative conditions and chronic illnesses, from allergies, eczema, and arthritis to dental caries, heart attack, and even cancer. Drawing on the work of Dr Weston A. Price, Dr Francis Pottenger, and other nutritional health pioneers, Dr Ron Schmid demonstrates that the strongest and most disease-resistant indigenous cultures around the world lived on whole, natural foods - seafood, wild game, healthy grass-fed domestic animals, and, in some cases, whole grains and raw dairy.
