The Weston A. Price Foundation has developed these guidelines as an alternative to the unscientific and unhealthy USDA dietary guidelines and food pyramid. Every week, I will share more on these 4 groups to help you and your family to achieve optimal health for generations to come.
Every day eat high-quality WHOLE FOODS to provide an abundance of nutrients, chosen from each of the following four groups:
1. Animal foods: meat and organ meats, poultry, and eggs from pastured animals, fish and shellfish, whole raw cheese, milk and other dairy products from pastured animals, and broth made from animal bones.
2. Grains, legumes and nuts: whole-grain baked goods, breakfast porridge, whole grain rice; beans and lentils, peanuts, cashews and nuts – all properly prepared to improve digestibility.
3. Vegetables & fruit: fresh or frozen, preferably locally grown, either raw, cooked or in soups and stew, and also as lacto-fermented condiments.
4. Fats & oils: unrefined saturated and monounsaturated fats including butter, lard, meat fats, poultry fat and other animal fats; palm and coconut oils; olive oil; cod liver oil for vitamins A and D.
Thanks to the Weston A. Price Foundation, the Healthy4Life dietary guidelines are easy to follow – you do not need to count calories or servings to follow these guidelines – and they provide foods that are satisfying, delicious to eat and healthy for your whole family.
