The Weston A. Price Foundation's Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health grounded in traditional wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found by "improving" nature. On the contrary, "Life in all its fullness is Mother Nature obeyed," as Dr. Weston A. Price observed. By learning from healthy societies of the past, we can rediscover how to live healthier lives today. The Foundation's podcast is an invitation to explore traditional food and healthways that support true vitality. Host and producer Kendall Nelson interviews leading experts on a wide range of topics—ranging from preparing traditional foods, nutrient-dense diets, organ meats and animal fats to grass-based farming, natural detoxification, the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Each episode offers listeners practical insights and timeless wisdom to help them heal, grow and live more vibrant, fulfilling lives.
602: What Traditional Cultures Can Teach Us About Raising Healthy Children With Mariélli Pahim
What can traditional cultures teach us about fertility, pregnancy, babies, and lifelong health? Nutritionist Mariélli Pahim spent 15 years traveling through more than 35 countries, living and working alongside indigenous and traditional communities and observing how they grow, prepare, and eat their food. Along the way, she discovered remarkable similarities across cultures—from the importance of animal foods and organ meats to fermentation, traditional food preparation, and the role of community. In this episode, Mariélli shares how her experiences in places like Tonga, Fiji, Indonesia, Thailand, Turkey, and Norway challenged what she had learned in conventional nutrition school—and how discovering the work of Dr. Weston A. Price and Sally Fallon Morell helped her connect the dots. She also explains why preparing for pregnancy begins with both the mother and the father, the nutrient-dense foods she emphasizes during pregnancy, and what traditional cultures understand about nourishing women during the critical postpartum period. Mariélli shares the unusual first foods she gave her own son, including fish eggs and reindeer, and why she believes restoring ancestral food traditions can give children a healthier start in life. Finally, Mariélli offers one simple place to begin if you want to bring ancestral nutrition into your own kitchen today. WAPF Ad: The Greatest Gift documentary.

601: Under The Microscope: What's Really In The COVID Shots? With Shimon Yanowitz
What's really inside the COVID shots? Electrical engineer and independent researcher Shimon Yanowitz decided he wanted to see for himself. Drawing on his background in semiconductor fabrication and industrial microscopy, Shimon began examining samples of the COVID injections under a microscope, and says what he observed led him down a years-long investigation into nanotechnology, engineering, and the scientific literature. In this episode, Shimon describes the unusual structures he says he observed in the samples, including ribbons, filaments, and formations resembling electronic circuitry. He explains how he watched some of these structures develop in real time and why he believes what he saw is evidence of self-assembling nanotechnology. Shimon also discusses his research into DARPA documents and scientific literature, his concerns about the potential effects of these technologies in the human body, and his own experience of becoming ill after working closely with the injectable material. Finally, he shares findings from his recently published paper, From Synthetic DNA and RNA-Based Self-Assembling Nanotechnology to Sequelae of COVID-19 Shots. WAPF Ad: Become a member today.

600: The Truth About Fluoride In Your Water With Michael Connett
Attorney Michael Connett has spent more than two decades investigating fluoride—and seven years battling the Environmental Protection Agency in federal court over the risks of adding it to drinking water. In this episode, he takes us inside the landmark case that resulted in a federal judge finding that water fluoridation poses an unreasonable risk to children's developing brains. Michael discusses research linking fluoride exposure during pregnancy with reduced IQ in children, the government report he says officials tried to prevent from being released, and how the court's decision helped propel efforts to end water fluoridation in Utah and Florida. He also explains where the fluoride added to drinking water comes from, why swallowing fluoride is not necessary for its purported dental benefits, and why he believes fluoridation raises serious questions about informed consent. We also explore research surrounding fluoride and bone health, the current status of Michael's case against the EPA, his new lawsuits involving children's fluoride products, and the prevalence of dental fluorosis among American children. Finally, Michael offers practical ways to reduce fluoride exposure and explains how ordinary citizens can get involved in efforts to end water fluoridation in their own communities.

534: How to Heal & Restructure Your Water...So It Can Heal You with Mario Brainović
Published 7 Jul 2025 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Yes. The key thing what actually happens is still H2O, but we realized in our research that water currently exists in what we call a chaotic state. So H2O molecules, they move randomly, they crash into each other constantly. But since all of this is happening on an atomic level, nobody's really aware. […]
