Dr. Price was a Cleveland dentist, who has been called the “Charles Darwin” of Nutrition. Searching for the causes of dental decay and physical degeneration he observed daily in his dental practice, he turned from test tubes and microscopes to study “people with fine teeth” – the isolated “primitives”.

Traveling worldwide, Dr. Price found that beautiful, straight teeth, freedom from decay, stalwart bodies, and resistance to disease, and fine characters were typical of primitives on their traditional diets.

These primitives stand forth in sharp contrast to those subsiding on the “impoverished foods of civilization” – sugar, white flour, pasteurized milk, and convenience foods filled with extenders and additives.

His worldwide findings clearly showed that dental caries and deformed dental arches, resulting in crowded, crooked teeth and unattractive appearance, were merely a sign of physical degeneration, resulting from what he had suspected – nutritional deficiencies.

Dr. Price’s classic volume, "Nutrition and Physical Degeneration", is available from the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation. Its photographs illustrate in an unforgettable way the physical degeneration that occurs when human groups abandon nourishing traditional diets in favor of modern convenience foods.

Besides the hundreds of papers and speeches given by Dr. Price, Price-Pottenger also has available the 1174 page, book of Dr. Price's 25 year research project on root canals and root canal therapy and focal infection, "Dental Infections Oral and Systemic and Dental Infections and the Degenerative Diseases."
