 There is a new e-course entitled “Beautiful Babies“ created by Weston A. Price Foundation member Kristen Michaelis of Food Renegade. It looks like a really wonderful service and I fully support their approach. It teaches women how to increase their fertility, have a happier pregnancy, and boost their baby’s health through the use of traditional foods.

The purpose was to protest the increasingly heavy-handed, SWAT-like approach taken by the California Department of Food and Agriculture and the FDA toward producers and distributors of raw milk, including co-operative farm shares.
