INTRODUCTION

This feature-length documentary brings to life the pioneering research of Dr. Weston A. Price, a visionary dentist whose work unlocked the profound connection between traditional diets and human health. Often referred to as the “Isaac Newton of Nutrition,” Dr. Price’s groundbreaking studies from the 1930s demonstrated that fertility, robust childhood development and lifelong vitality are directly linked to nutrient-dense, whole foods and the fat-soluble “activators” found exclusively in animal fats. His research revealed that societies consuming nutrient-dense traditional diets not only enjoyed superior health but also experienced robust fertility, easy childbirth and virtually no childhood illnesses. In contrast, those who adopted modern, processed foods suffered from infertility, birth defects and degenerative diseases.

This film explores Dr. Price’s legacy and its urgent relevance today. With infertility rates skyrocketing, childhood illnesses at an all-time high and chronic conditions affecting even the youngest generation, this documentary unveils the root causes of these crises. It exposes the dangers of modern diets—including processed foods, industrial seed oils and both soy-based and regular infant formulas—while illuminating the path back to optimal health through nutrient-dense, whole foods.

More than a history lesson, this film is a call to action. It highlights the Weston A. Price Foundation’s efforts to restore real food to the human diet through education, research and advocacy. From the importance of preconception nutrition to the necessity of clean, raw milk and properly prepared foods for growing children, the documentary provides a blueprint for parents and future parents to reclaim their fertility, nourish their families and raise happy, resilient children.

Through expert insights, compelling real-world stories and actionable solutions, this film empowers audiences to take control of their health. By reconnecting with traditional dietary wisdom, we can reverse the modern epidemic of chronic disease and ensure a healthier future for generations to come. See more details.

Why This Film Matters

We are in the midst of an unprecedented health crisis—one that threatens the very future of our children. Sixty percent of kids today suffer from chronic illness. Autism now affects one in thirty-six American children. Obesity, diabetes, autoimmune disorders and life-threatening allergies are at all-time highs. Infertility is skyrocketing. The heartbreaking truth? This is not normal.

We must ask—what does the future hold? Will the next generation be stronger and healthier, or even sicker than the last? Parents are searching for answers. Families are desperate for solutions. And we have them.

This film is a wake-up call. Through breathtaking cinematography, deeply personal storytelling and rigorous scientific research, we expose the hidden forces behind this epidemic and illuminate a way forward. We challenge everything we’ve been told about food, medicine and health—and show how a return to traditional wisdom can heal our children, restore fertility and transform lives.

Today, a new generation of experts is stepping up to lead the way back to true health. This film brings together pioneers in nutrition, regenerative agriculture and holistic healing, making their lifesaving knowledge accessible to all. The time is now.

By retracing Dr. Price’s footsteps, sharing powerful success stories and showcasing the experts carrying his mission forward, we aim to ignite a movement—one that reclaims health, restores fertility and revives the wise traditions that sustained vibrant, thriving families for centuries.

This is more than a documentary. It’s a revolution. Our goal? To make WAPF a household name, increase its membership and influence, and empower every parent with the knowledge to protect and brighten their children’s future. 

We are fighting for the next generation. And we won’t back down.

Please join us in this mission.
