Nourish Vermont 2016 // Sally Fallon Morell: Seminar on Traditional Diets (Part I) Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2016-07-21 | Animal fats, properly prepared whole grains, enzyme-enriched foods and nourishing bone broths kept our ancestors healthy. Sally Fallon Morell, author of Nourishing Traditions, explains why these are vital factors for maintaining good health today. Beginning with a presentation of Dr. Weston Price’s unforgettable photographs of healthy traditional peoples, Ms. Fallon Morell explains the underlying factors in a variety of traditional diets, which conferred beauty, strength and complete freedom from disease on so-called primitive populations. Then she presents a step-by-step plan to put nourishing traditional foods—foods that your family will actually eat—back into your diet, including easy breakfast cereals, soups, sauces, snack foods, high-enzyme condiments and soft drinks that are actually good for you.
Nourish Vermont 2019 | Zach Bush, M.D. | The Soil Microbiome Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-25 | The exponential rise in the prevalence of chronic disease in the developed world is staggering, and threatens the financial and political stability of the developed nations around the world. In the US, 46% of our children now carry a chronic disease diagnosis. This is in stark contrast to the chronic disease burden of 4% in the US population (including all ages) in the 1960s. Research from around the globe suggests that a combination of genomic, autoimmune, nutritional, and environmental factors are now contributing to the collapse of health in our children and adults. Not surprisingly, the diseases in our domesticated animals – from pets to livestock – have followed a similar trajectory. While this may seem overwhelming, the fact that each of these systems seemed to approach collapse at the same time, would suggest that there is a root cause event that has setoff the cascade of systemic complications. This talk explores the role of the microbiome and agriculture system as ground zero of this humanitarian crisis, providing new insights for consumers and health practitioners alike.Zach Bush, MD is a triple board-certified physician with expertise in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care. His basic science and clinical research over the last 17 years has moved from chemotherapy development to the role of the microbiome in human health. As founder and CEO of Seraphic Group, Inc. Zach has started over a dozen companies in pursuit of root cause solutions in the areas of health, energy, and ecology. Through his teams’ investigation in these areas, he has discovered that disruption of natural carbon cycles is common in all sectors. With this unifying science, he has launched a global education campaign with the Farmer’s Footprint docuseries and non-profit, that brings consumer and corporate support to farmers prepared to transition from chemical farming to regenerative agriculture and create a healthier future.
Nourish Vermont 2019 | Mark Schaztker | The Dorito Effect Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-25 | Since the 1940s, whole foods we grow have been getting gradually blander, thanks to industrialized food production that prizes quantity and not quality. Simultaneously, we have taken great leaps forward in flavor technology, creating a billion-dollar industry that engineers ultra processed foods for maximal deliciousness. The result is a national cuisine that increasingly resembles the paragon of flavor manipulation: Doritos. As food becomes increasingly bland and leached of nutrients, we dress it up with calories and flavor chemicals to make it delicious again. With in-depth scientific and historical research, The Dorito Effect tells the story of how the very nature of deliciousness itself has changed, and how this is influencing what people eat, and how much, and it explores the fascinating but controversial relationship between the flavors we like and the nutrients we need. We’ve been telling ourselves that our “addiction” to palatable food is the problem, but it is actually the solution. Schatzker documents the exciting new developments in plant science that will allow us to eat healthier and live longer by enjoying flavor the way nature intended. Flavor isn’t our enemy. Flavor is nature’s language of nutrition. We need to bring the flavor of food back in line with the nutrition provides our bodies.Mark Schaztker is the author of The Dorito Effect and Steak. His award-winng journalism has appeared in in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Condé Nast Traveler and Best American Travel Writing. He is a field reporter for The Dr. Oz Show as well as a radio columnist for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. He lives in Toronto with his wife and three children.
Nourish Vermont 2019 | Beth Lambert | Documenting Hope Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-08 | With rates of chronic illness and neurobehavioral and developmental conditions in children around the globe reaching epidemic proportions, it is time to look at the environmental factors triggering these new childhood epidemics. We have more autism, ADHD, asthma, allergies, diabetes and other conditions than ever before and our “healthy” kids aren’t even very healthy. While children’s health was largely seen through the lens of genetics in the 20th century, a new paradigm is emerging—one that explains why children get sick (and struggle developmentally) and how they can return to good health and vitality. There is much to be learned from the children and families who have completely lost their diagnoses and recovered their health. What does the healing process look like for these families and what enables these children to thrive in a toxic world? Importantly, how can we take the lessons learned from these families and help protect all of our children? Included in this talk: case studies and a sneak peak at a research program that aims to turn this childhood epidemic on its head.Author, educator and former healthcare consultant, Beth Lambert has monitored and documented the escalating rates of childhood chronic conditions for nearly a decade. Her first book, A Compromised Generation, provides a thorough analysis of the origins of this modern health crisis and documents how modifications to environmental and lifestyle factors can profoundly influence health outcomes, including full disease reversal. Beth is also the co-author of Brain Under Attack: A Resource for Parents and Caregivers of Children with PANS, PANDAS, and Autoimmune Encephalitis. Beth is the founder and Executive Director of Epidemic Answers, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to reestablishing vibrant health in our children. She is also the creator and Executive Producer of The Documenting Hope Project, a multi-year prospective research study and media project that examines the cumulative impact of environmental stressors on health and their mitigation through personalized and systems-based treatment approaches.
Nourish Vermont 2019 | Katy Bowman | Move Your DNA Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-08 | We are currently experiencing a pandemic of sedentarism. This sedentarism is an entirely new, entirely unprecedented environment for the human body, which does not cope well with a lack of mechanical input. We’ve been told we need to “move more,” but what does that mean, exactly? What counts as moving more? Regular movement doesn’t only affect our body composition and the state of our heart and skeletal muscles; through a process called mechanotransduction, our cells’ behavior changes when they’re moved. Movement influences the expression of our genes.Animal bodies, including humans’, do not require exercise—they require movement. In order to be fully moved, humans need the almost constant, widely varied movement conditions in which human bodies evolved. Currently our society is almost entirely movement-free while our bodies’ need for movement is very high; thus we are experiencing an evolutionary mismatch when it comes to movement, both in terms of volume and distribution. A commonly proposed solution to sedentarism is exercise, which both technically and ideologically is limited to a very small section of a day, a handful of minutes per week—drastically different from the conditions that formed our physiology.To understand why physical inactivity is a leading cause of non-communicable disease and disability, we must also understand: that movement is both a whole-body and a local (part-by-part) phenomenon; the process of mechanotransduction; and the cellular adaptations to movement. To understand why the rate of inactivity is currently increasing in high-income countries, we must understand movement outsourcing and the impact of convenience on our physiology. The key to moving our bodies more lies in understanding what movement is, how it works, and most importantly how it can fit easily into our daily lives, which was where it came from in the first place. To move ourselves well, we must understand the nature of movement.
Nourish Vermont 2019 | Dr. Ted Achacoso | Who is Taking Care of your Mitochondria and Microbiota? Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-08 | Dr. Ted Achacoso (Co-Founder, Chief Science Officer, and Medical Director, European Double-Board Certified in Nutritional Medicine and Anti-Aging Medicine) is a man who never takes himself seriously but takes his work seriously.

Nourish Vermont 2019 | Nicolas Pineault | How to Combat Electro-Pollution with Ancestral Practices Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2019-07-08 | The levels of electrosmog generated by modern wireless technologies we’re exposed to are now at unprecedented levels, and an increasing number of people are feeling its side effects: fatigue, depression, anxiety, fertility issues, and an overall reduction in overall health. Luckily, multiple ancestral practices can help alleviate and even reverse the effects of this electro-pollution.
Nourish Vermont 2018 | Jeff Leach | Slipping from the Pond Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2018-07-03 | Jeff Leach’s interest in modern diet and the gut microbiome began almost a decade ago when his daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. As with other autoimmune diseases, an underlying genetic susceptibility must exist for type 1 diabetes to manifest but an environmental component (trigger) is necessary. With advances in metagenomics and huge government initiatives like the recently completed Human Microbiome Project, its becoming increasingly clear that the gut microbiome plays a significant if not causal role in the development of type 1 diabetes, other autoimmune diseases, and modern (ecological) diseases in general. In an effort to raise awareness about the changes in human ecology that have given rise to diseases of the modern world, Jeff launched the Human Food Project to blur the line between the science and the general public. See also our recently launched crowd sourcing project American Gut. We hope you can join us as we look to the past to better understand why we get sick. Research interests include the impact of acculturation on the gut microbiome among traditional groups in Africa, public health policy, ethnography, indigenous rights, hot-rock technology, site formation processes, foraging and pastoral societies, and evolution of the human microbiome from our Mio-Pliocene ancestors to modern primates and humans.
Nourish Vermont 2018 | Zach Bush, MD | Our Role in Today’s Disease Epidemics Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2018-07-03 | Consumer behavior over the last 50 years has led to extraordinary changes in our food systems in the United States. The demand for cheap, convenient food options throughout the grocery and restaurant industries has created today’s large scale chemical farming industry. Our separation and unawareness of the scale of the resulting ecological collapse and steady co-dependence that our food system has entered into with the chemical industries has set us up for a total loss of food independence and food sustainability in our highly industrialized nation and economy. This lecture reveals the multiple direct avenues by which these market and industry forces have impacted human health and disease. The scale of the problem is only matched by the extraordinary power of the microbiome to heal our most grave mistakes. Dr Bush outlines the concrete steps that we can take to re-engage the power of mother nature to reach food and health independence that we must reach if we are to escape the accelerating collapse of our physical, social, and financial structures.Zach Bush, MD is one of the few triple board-certified physicians in the country, with expertise in Internal Medicine, Endocrinology and Metabolism, and Hospice/Palliative care. The breakthrough science that Dr Zach and his colleagues have delivered offers profound new insights into human health and longevity. In 2012, he discovered a family of carbon-based redox molecules made by bacteria, and his team has subsequently demonstrated that this cellular communication network functions as an antidote to glyphosate, and many other dietary, chemical, and pharmaceutical toxins that disrupt our body’s natural defense systems. This science has resulted in a revolutionary class of dietary supplements, including the product RESTORE. Dr Zach points to his kids as the driving force behind his passion for change. He is fiercely motivated by a desire to have them experience a much brighter and healthier future. His educational efforts provide a grassroots foundation from which we can launch change in our legislative decisions, ultimately up-shifting consumer behavior to bring about radical change in the mega industries of big farming, big pharma, and western medicine at large.
Nourish Vermont 2018 | Dr. László Boros | Heavy hydrogen (deuterium) in nutritional medicine Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2018-07-03 | Deuterium (2H; D) is a stable isotope of hydrogen (1H) that weighs twice as much. Hydrogens are provided by the foods and liquids we consume. They have several fundamental biological roles including forming and maintaining the three-dimensional confirmation of proteins and DNA and as fuel to create ATP in the mitochondria. The creation of mitochondrial ATP occurs via rapidly rotating nanomotors, and the creation of ATP happens simultaneously with the creation of metabolic water in the mitochondria as the nanomotors rotate. When deuterium binds to the nanomotors instead of regular hydrogen, it acts like an “elephant in a china store” and ultimately breaks the nanomotors. This decrease in the capacity of nanomotors to drive the formation of ATP and metabolic water has devastating effects on metabolism, proliferation, and the structure of the cell and DNA. Biological systems continually deplete deuterium using a variety of methods including nutrition, gut microflora, biochemical reactions such as glycolysis, light and sound driven molecular resonance patterns, breathing, and exercise. But this ability to deplete deuterium decreases as we eat poorly, sleep less, get older, and become sick and diseased. As a consequence, deuterium acts as an oncoisotope and deuterium depletion is gaining acceptance as an important part of scientific, translational, and clinical program across the globe. Deuterium depletion provides a better understanding of how nutrition, physical factors such as light exposure, circadian rhythms, photoelectric and cosmic resonance, aging, and exercise “truly” effect the world’s greatest health challenges – fatigue, impotence, cancer, diabetes, cognitive decline, heart disease, and premature aging. Dr. Boros’ talk will clarify the biological art of submolecular deuterium fractionation, discrimination, and depletion and make a case for it being Nature’s most efficient tool to protect cellular metabolism, energy production, and structure from permanent damage in order to preserve strength, health, and vitality!Dr. László Boros holds a Doctor of Medicine degree from the Albert Szent-Györgyi School of Medicine, Szeged, Hungary and he is currently a Professor of Pediatrics, Endocrinology and Metabolism at the UCLA School of Medicine. He is an active investigator at the UCLA Clinical & Translational Science (CTSI) and the Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institutes (LABIOMED). He is the Chief Scientific Advisor of Metabolic Profiling at CignatureHealth where he studies heavy hydrogen, deuterium related clinical chemistry and advises clinical services. Dr. Boros is the co-inventor of the targeted 13C tracer fate association study (TTFAS) platform to study deuterium as an oncoisotope and its depletion by mitochondrial matrix water exchanges to prevent oncoisotopic cell transformation by deuterium. Dr. Boros trained as a house staff in his medical school in gastroenterology after receiving a research training fellowship from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Dr. Boros was a visiting Scholar at the Essen School of Medicine in Germany and also worked as a Research Scientist at the Ohio State University, Department of Surgery, in the historic Zollinger-Ellison laboratory. Dr. Boros is the recipient of the C. Williams Hall Outstanding Publication Award from the Academy of Surgical Research of the United States (1997), the Richard E. Weitzman Memorial Research Award from the University of California (2001), the Excellence in Clinical Research Award from the General Clinical Research Center at the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center (2004) and Public Health Impact Investigator Award of the United States Food and Drug Administration (2011). Dr. Boros serves as an associate editor for the journals Pancreas and Metabolomics while he serves as an Academic Editor of Medicine® Oncology.
Nourish Vermont 2018 | Nicolas Pineault | Thrive In A World Filled With Electrosmog Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2018-07-03 | Our modern exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) – or “Electrosmog” – are orders of magnitudes higher than ancestral levels, and this new type of pollution is triggering health symptoms in many people. With the upcoming roll-out of the new 5G networks which will blanket our environment with even thicker electrosmog, Nick explores how we follow ancestral health principles and greatly reduce our exposure just by changing a few bad habits most of us have around technology.Slides:s3.amazonaws.com/nghl-ntge/180601_NourishVermont_NicolasPineault.pdfNicolas Pineault is an investigative health journalist, educator and advocate for safe technologies. In 2017, he authored The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs — an unconventional book endorsed by top health authorities such as Dr. Mercola, and which tackles the very serious topic of electromagnetic pollution with humor and common sense.

Nourish Vermont 2018 | Zacciah Blackburn | Sound as Nutrition Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2018-07-03 | Our world is filled with Sound and Light. Our brain is constantly stimulated by these sound and light impulses in our environment, and interprets and encodes our experiences in Time and Space through the auditory and visual cortexes. What many of us do not realize, is that in our highly stimulated modern world, these neurological signals also activate excitation and relaxation responses in our hormones, and thus in our physiology.The Science of Sound tells us that over-stimulative sounds and noise in our environs create stressful toxic effects on our physiology not unlike the toxic effect of psychological and emotional stress, or even polluted air, water, and food. Conversely, sounds interpreted as relaxing or beautiful create nourishment through those same neurological impulses.Sound healing is a rapidly growing new therapeutic field, which draws from many ancient cultures’ uses of sound and music, as well as modern technology, to create relaxing, soothing, or healing sounds for listeners to rest or ‘bathe’ in. The skillful use of intentional sound can also create the atmosphere for one to journey into the inner sanctums of mind and spirit, to carry us to places of new inspiration or revelation, and to deeper connection, harmony and balance within.Come and join with Master sound workers Zacciah Blackburn and Dorothy Stone as they weave a rich tapestry of sound, guiding us into an exploratory journey of the sacred space within us, and the connecting point of sound and light, which may bring us together into the greater network, the very matrix of Life.Zacciah Blackburn is a gifted intuitive, teacher, and sound healer, trained in classical healing and shamanic traditions, and sacred sound cultures. He teaches internationally, and practices in Vermont, USA, at the Center of Light Institute of Sound Healing and Shamanic Studies. Zacciah shares authentic trainings in the nature of human consciousness, explorations into the Shamanic worlds of Earth Energies & awareness, and teachings on the nature of sound, and sacred sound practices, as a therapeutic healing modality. His in depth understanding provides life transforming experiences into the authentic nature, being, and wellness of who we are as spiritual beings. He is Director of Education at the International Sound Healing Network, & co-founder & Director of the World Sound Healing and All One Now Network of organizations working for global peace. He also offers musical instruments of sacred sound cultures, and sound healing tools, as well as expert advice on their use, at www.sunreed.com. See his primary website for further information.

Nourish Vermont 2016 // Dr. Jack Kruse: How to Bio-Hack Your Zip Code for Optimal Health Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2016-07-19 | It is not our genes but rather the epigenetic expression of those genes that determines our health and the environment in which we live plays a critical role. Changing our diet is a good start but it is equally important to change the toxic environment in which we live to achieve optimal health. Take a deep dive into the science behind 165 million years of mammalian evolution and find out what went wrong with our modern world and what we can do about it. Beyond the Epi-Paleo Rx, a prescription for optimal health, explore why light, water and magnetism are necessary to achieve our genetic potential. Learn why our environment trumps the food we eat, how sunlight affects hormones, and how blue light disrupts circadian rhythms. Explore how non native EMFs and and a lack of connection to the earth are currently destroying our health. Learn ways to hack your environment to mitigate these dangers. From this perspective, learn why it is important to eat seasonally, why cold is important- the Cold Thermogenesis protocol, and how our loss of connection to the natural world, from sunlight, earthing, seasonal temperature and light cycles are causing the diseases of the modern world.

Nourish Vermont 2016 // Guido Masé: Plant Deficiency Syndrome Nourish Vermont Traditional Foods and Health Gathering 2016-07-19 | Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer: the chronic disease syndromes of our Western culture are connected to our standardized, carbohydrate-intensive diet and our standardized, “always-on” schedule. Part of the solution may rest in replacing what's missing: not isolated vitamins, minerals or enzymes so commonly found in the dietary supplement industry, but the complex cocktails of botanical chemistry found in real, wild, unhybridized local plants. Our bodies co-evolved with these plants, and we see traces of this ancient relationship deep within all our cells: from secret switches that affect the expression of our genes, to effective digestion, metabolism, and liver detoxification, to a supportive environment for our internal flora, to the smooth flow of brain chemistry. Without these cues, we are like fish out of water, and become much more vulnerable to chronic disease. Fortunately, a template exists for correcting this plant deficiency syndrome: it is herbal medicine. It relies on whole foods, seasonal rhythms, and simple preparation techniques. It is the third leg of the stool of wellness, along with traditional diets and avoidance of external toxins and disruptive influences. We can rely on it for its life-affirming, rewilding power. By restoring the organic information stream our bodies are tuned to, herbal medicine can help us move forward in the modern world with grace and well-being.
