521: Why The American Dietary Guidelines Are Making Us Fatter and Sicker Than Ever With Nina Teicholz
The U.S. dietary guidelines are considered the "gold standard" of nutrition recommendations. But they are failing us. Americans are unhealthier (and more obese) than ever before. Nina Teicholz, the author of "The Big Fat Surprise", explains why they are faulty and based on poor science. She goes over how the guidelines were chosen, its ties to the American Heart Association, Proctor & Gamble and Crisco. She explains why the emphasis on grains (even refined grains) and low-fat choices have led to sickness. And why saturated fat and sodium consumption are currently "capped" but shouldn't be. Finally, she shares her vision for how the guidelines could be reformed, based on sound science, for improved health outcomes for all Americans.

518: What the Nurses Saw: The Perversion of Medicine During Covid With Ken McCarthy
They say that those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it. This is why we are releasing this podcast focused on what happened in hospitals during the "pandemic." Ken McCarthy is the author of "What the Nurses Saw," and today he reveals the systemic issues in patient care that occurred during the time of COVID-19—from unethical changes in the standards of care for patients to the unprepared staff and unhelpful hospital hierarchy to incentives for the use of ventilators and for labeling deaths as covid-related. It played out like a horror show instead of health care, according to Ken. And anyone who dared to call out what was happening was censored or had their license revoked or were publicly shamed. It was a blatant attack on free speech. Ken boldly reminds us of what happened only four or five years ago and explains why this all matters now.

517: Steps to Really Make America Healthy Again with Sally Fallon Morell
To make America healthy again is going to take more than a political movement! Today, Sally Fallon Morell, the president and founder of the Weston A. Price Foundation, weighs in on the campaign platform that was part of the Republican platform in the 2024 elections. Sally tells what she believes was behind the movement, what it is overlooking, and what she hopes it will accomplish. She reminds us of the benefits of eating the wise traditions way. And how making vaccines voluntary could radically change the health landscape of our country and our children. She also addresses concerns about MSG in our food supply and the financial interests behind vaccinations, among other important topics. Finally, she suggests that the best way to make America healthy again is to improve the choices we make in our own home.

The Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health, based on ancient wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through “improving” nature. On the contrary, “life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed,” as Dr. Price put it. We thrive when we live as our ancestors did, and we can look to the past for clues on how to go about it.
This show, sponsored by the Weston A. Price Foundation, is an invitation to follow ancient health ways and to embrace alternative healing modalities to live our best lives. Our host, Hilda Labrada Gore, known as Holistic Hilda, interviews experts on a wide variety of topics—ranging from nutrient-dense foods to improving mental health to homesteading to detoxing to healing emotional trauma to the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Every episode offers the listener a new (ancient) way to heal, grow, and live a happy life, brimming with vitality.
