Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook That Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats
Alternative Health Wholefood Nutrition Fermentation Traditional Foods Cooking / Health Reference / Cookbook
Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook That Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats is the 688-page, fully illustrated second-edition bible that sparked the modern traditional-food revival. First released in 2001, this thick trade paperback distills decades of research by nutrition scientists Sally Fallon and Dr. Mary Enig into 700+ recipes that put butter, eggs, raw dairy, organ meats, lacto-fermented veggies, and bone broths back on the table—exactly the nutrient-dense foods your grandparents ate before low-fat dogma took over. Each recipe sits beside clear explanations of why soaking grains, fermenting beans, and cooking with animal fats restores vitamins, enzymes, and minerals that modern processing strips away, making the book equal parts cookbook and reference manual for anyone who wants to eat for fertility, strong bones, mental clarity, and long-term metabolic health.
What makes this copy special to own is its "very good" condition from a smoke-free home, so every page of the dense, 1.5-inch thick volume remains crisp and ready for kitchen duty. At 48 oz and 10.1 inches tall, the book lies flat on the counter while you soak oats overnight or culture cream into crème fraîche, and the generous margins leave room for your own notes. Buyers searching for the ISBN 9780967089737 will find this second edition contains the updated science on trans fats, vitamin A, and DHA that wasn't in the 1995 first print run. Whether you're a young adult feeding a growing family or an experienced cook healing autoimmune issues, this single volume replaces a shelf of diet books with actionable steps to reclaim health through traditional fats, fermented drinks, and slow-cooked whole foods—the delicious way our ancestors ate.
