In this book, Weston A. Price documents his nearly 10-year global journey to understand the secret to health. He focused on healthy individuals in isolated primitive cultures and observed their excellent health, including perfect dental arches, minimal tooth decay, and high immunity to diseases. Price found that when these populations adopted modernized foods such as white flour, white sugar, and refined oils, they quickly showed signs of degeneration, including dental caries, deformed jaw structures, and increased susceptibility to chronic diseases. The book includes hundreds of photos and detailed analyses of the nutritional content of indigenous foods versus modern diets, emphasizing the critical role of fat-soluble vitamins and minerals in maintaining health.

In 'Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It', Gary Taubes critiques the 'calories-in, calories-out' model of weight gain, arguing that carbohydrates and insulin play a crucial role in obesity.

In this book, Bruce H. Lipton presents a new understanding of how genes and DNA can be influenced by our beliefs and thoughts. He argues that genes do not control our biology; instead, DNA is controlled by signals from outside the cell, including the energetic messages emanating from our positive and negative thoughts. This synthesis of cell biology and quantum physics shows that our bodies can be changed as we retrain our thinking. Lipton emphasizes the role of the subconscious mind in processing information and how our beliefs shape our health, relationships, and overall success. He also discusses the importance of cooperative living and the potential for transforming our lives by becoming conscious of and reprogramming our limiting beliefs.
