Board of Directors
 Sally
Fallon, MA (President and Treasurer), is a journalist, chef,
nutrition researcher, homemaker, and community activist. She is the
author of Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically
Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats. This well-researched,
thought-provoking guide to traditional foods contains a startling message:
Animal fats and cholesterol are not villains but vital factors in the
diet, necessary for normal growth, proper function of the brain and
nervous system, protection from disease and optimum energy levels.
Ms. Fallon's lifelong interest in the subject of nutrition began in
the early 1970s when she read Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
by Weston A. Price. Called the "Charles Darwin of Nutrition,"
Price traveled the world over studying healthy primitive populations
and their diets. The unforgettable photographs contained in his book
document the beautiful facial structure and superb physiques of isolated
groups consuming only whole, natural foods. Price noted that all of
these diets contained a source of good quality animal fat, which provided
numerous factors necessary for the full expression of our genetic potential
and optimum health. Ms. Fallon applied the principles of the Price research
to the feeding of her own children, and proved for herself that a diet
rich in animal fats, and containing the protective factors in old fashioned
foodstuffs like cod liver oil, liver and eggs, make for sturdy cheerful
children with a high immunity to illness.
When the youngest of her four children became old enough to attend
school full time, Ms. Fallon applied her writing skills and training
in French and Mediterranean cooking to the subject of nutrition and
began work on a comprehensive cookbook that would combine accurate information
on nutrition with delicious, practical recipes. She teamed with Mary
Enig, Ph.D., an expert of world renown in the subject of lipids and
human nutrition. Now is its second edition, Nourishing Traditions
has stimulated the public health and medical communities to take a new
look at the importance of traditional foods and preparation techniques,
and to reexamine the many myths about saturated fats and cholesterol.
The book places special emphasis on the feeding of babies and children
to ensure optimal development during their crucial growing years.
Ms. Fallon and her colleague Dr. Enig are frequent contributors to
holistic health publications. Their work is widely respected for providing
accurate and understandable explanations of complicated subjects in
the field of nutrition and health. Several articles on the dangers of
modern soy products have generated intense controversy in the health
food industry
She is the president and owner of NewTrends Publishing, serving as
editor and publisher of Nourishing Traditions, The Cholesterol
Myths by Uffe Ravnskov, MD, PhD; The Untold Story of Milk
by Ron Schmid, ND; The Yoga of Eating by Charles Eisenstein;

Whole Soy Story (December 2004) by Kaayla T. Daniel, PhD.

Press), co-authored with Dr. Mary Enig, will appear in December 2004.
