The
Art of Fermentation
An In-Depth Exploration of Essential Concepts and
Processes from Around the World
by Sandor Ellix Katz
Foreword by Michael Pollan
The Art of Fermentation is the most comprehensive guide to
do-it-yourself home fermentation ever published. Sandor Katz presents
the concepts and processes behind fermentation in ways that are simple
enough to guide a reader through their first experience making
sauerkraut or yogurt, and in-depth enough to provide greater
understanding and insight for experienced practitioners.
While Katz expertly contextualizes fermentation in terms of biological
and cultural evolution, health and nutrition, and even economics, this
is primarily a compendium of practical information—how the processes
work; parameters for safety; techniques for effective preservation;
troubleshooting; and more.
With two-color illustrations and extended resources, this book provides
essential wisdom for cooks, homesteaders, farmers, gleaners, foragers,
and food lovers of any kind who want to develop a deeper understanding
and appreciation for arguably the oldest form of food preservation, and
part of the roots of culture itself. Readers will find detailed
information on fermenting vegetables; sugars into alcohol (meads, wines,
and ciders); sour tonic beverages; milk; grains and starchy tubers;
beers (and other grain-based alcoholic beverages); beans; seeds; nuts;
fish; meat; and eggs, as well as growing mold cultures, using
fermentation in agriculture, art, and energy production, and
considerations for commercial enterprises. Sandor Katz has introduced
what will undoubtedly remain a classic in food literature, and is the
first—and only—of its kind.

Seeds
of Deception by Jeffery Smith (BOOK)
Exposing Industry and Government Lies About the Safety of the
Genetically Engineered Foods You're Eating by
Jeffrey Smith
Without knowing it, Americans eat genetically modified (GM) food
everyday. While the food and chemical industries claim that GMO food is
safe, a considerable amount of evidence shows otherwise. In Seeds of
Deception, Jeffrey Smith, a former executive with the leading
independent laboratory testing for GM presence in foods, documents these
serious health dangers and explains how corporate influence and
government collusion have been used to cover them up.
The stories Smith presents read like a mystery novel. Scientists are
offered bribes or threatened; evidence is stolen; data withheld or
distorted. Government scientists who complain are stripped of
responsibilities or fired. The FDA even withheld information from
congress after a GM food supplement killed nearly a hundred people and
permanently disabled thousands. While Smith was employed by the
laboratory he was not allowed to speak on the health dangers or the
cover-up. No longer bound by this agreement, Smith now reveals what he
knows in this groundbreaking exposé.
Today, food companies sell GM foods that have not undergone safety
studies. FDA scientists opposed this, but White House and industry
pressure prevailed and the agency's final policy--co-authored by a
former Monsanto attorney--denied the risks. The scientists' concerns
were made public only after a lawsuit forced the agency to turn over
internal documents.
Dan Glickman, former Secretary of Agriculture, describes the
government's pro-biotech mindset: "You felt like you were almost an
alien, disloyal, by trying to present an open-minded view. . . . So I
pretty much spouted the rhetoric. . . . It was written into my
speeches."
In Seeds of Deception Smith offers easy-to-understand descriptions of
genetic engineering and explains why it can result in serious health
problems. This well-documented, pivotal work will show you how to
protect yourself and your family.

Genetic
Roulette by Jeffrey M. Smith
(BOOK)
The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods
Eating genetically modified food is gambling with every bite.
The biotech industry’s claim that genetically modified (GM) foods are
safe is shattered in this groundbreaking book. Nearly forty health risks
of the foods that Americans eat every day are presented in easy-to-read
two-page spreads. The left page is designed for the quick scanning
reader; it includes bullets, illustrations, and quotes. The right side
offers fully referenced text, describing both research studies and
theoretical risks. It is presented in the clear, accessible style that
made Jeffrey Smith’s Seeds of Deception the world’s best-selling book on
genetically engineered foods.
The second half of Genetic Roulette explores why children are most at
risk, how to avoid GM foods, false claims by biotech advocates, how
industry research is rigged to avoid finding problems, why GM crops are
not needed to feed the world, the economic losses associated with these
crops, and more.

Genetic
Roulette (DVD) - The Gamble of Our Lives
By Jeffrey Smith (85 Minutes)
How Genetically Engineered Foods Harm You and Your Family
Never-before-seen evidence points to genetically engineered foods as a
major contributor to rising disease rates in the U.S. population,
especially among children. Gastrointestinal disorders, allergies,
inflammatory diseases, and infertility are just some of the problems
identified in humans, pets. livestock, and lab animals that eat
genetically modified soybeans and corn.
Monsanto’s strong-arm tactics, the FDA’s fraudulent policies, and how
the USDA ignores a growing health emergency are also laid bare. This
sometimes shocking film may change your diet, help you protect your
family, and accelerate the consumer tipping point against genetically
modified organisms (GMOs). A film not to be missed.
Also includes the bonus DVD Seeds of Freedom (28 min.) narrated by
Jeremy Irons, and produced by the Gaia Foundation and African
Biodiversity Network. This landmark film shows how the story of seed at
the hands of multinationals has become one of loss, control, dependence,
and debt. Also: two talks by Jeffrey M. Smith and twelve public-service
announcements.

About the Author
Jeffrey Smith is a master story teller. His style captivates and charms,
while his meticulously documented facts leave no doubt about a massive
injustice. Smith has worked with a nonprofit group to promote labeling
of GM foods; proposed legislation to keep these foods out of schools to
protect children; and worked at a GMO detection laboratory. He founded
the Institute for Responsible Technology and lives in Iowa, surrounded
by genetically modified corn and soybeans.

The World According To
Monsanto by Jeffery Smith
About the DVD:
The long-awaited film by French filmmaker Marie-Monique Robin is now
available in the US!
Formal release of this chilling documentary is scheduled for fall, 2008
with public showings around the nation, but the film is now available as
a pre-publication release.
Monsanto's controversial past combines some of the most toxic products
ever sold with misleading reports, pressure tactics, collusion, and
attempted corruption. They now race to genetically engineer (and patent)
the world's food supply, which profoundly threatens our health,
environment, and economy. Combining secret documents with first-hand
accounts by victims, scientists, and politicians, this widely praised
film exposes why Monsanto has become the world's poster child for
malignant corporate influence in government and technology. 109 minutes

The
Raw Milk Revolution by David E. Gumpert
Foreword by Joel Salatin
The Raw Milk Revolution takes readers behind the scenes of the
government's tough and occasionally brutal intimidation tactics, as seen
through the eyes of milk producers, government regulators, scientists,
prosecutors, and consumers. It is a disturbing story involving
marginally legal police tactics and investigation techniques, with young
children used as political pawns in a highly charged atmosphere of fear
and retribution.
Are regulators' claims that raw milk poses a public health threat
legitimate? That turns out to be a matter of considerable debate. In
assessing the threat, The Raw Milk Revolution reveals that the
government's campaign, ostensibly designed to protect consumers from
pathogens like salmonella, E. coli 0157:H7, and listeria, was based in a
number of cases on suspect laboratory findings and illnesses attributed
to raw milk that could well have had other causes, including, in some
cases, pasteurized milk.
David Gumpert dares to ask whether regulators have the public's interest
in mind or the economic interests of dairy conglomerates. He assesses
how the government's anti–raw-milk campaign fits into a troublesome
pattern of expanding government efforts to sanitize the food supply—even
in the face of ever-increasing rates of chronic disease like asthma,
diabetes, and allergies. The Raw Milk Revolution provides an unsettling
view of the future, in which nutritionally dense foods may be available
largely through underground channels.

Renewing
America's Food Traditions
Saving and Savoring the Continent's Most Endangered Foods
Edited by Gary Nabhan
Foreword by Deborah Madison
Renewing America’s Food Traditions is a beautifully illustrated dramatic
call to recognize, celebrate, and conserve the great diversity of foods
that gives North America its distinctive culinary identity that reflects
our multicultural heritage. It offers us rich natural and cultural
histories as well as recipes and folk traditions associated with the
rarest food plants and animals in North America. In doing so, it reminds
us that what we choose to eat can either conserve or deplete the
cornucopia of our continent.
While offering a eulogy to a once-common game food that has gone
extinct—the passenger pigeon—the book doesn’t dwell on tragic losses.
Instead, it highlights the success stories of food recovery, habitat
restoration, and market revitalization that chefs, farmers, ranchers,
fishermen, and foresters have recently achieved. Through such “food
parables,” editor Gary Paul Nabhan and his colleagues build a persuasive
argument for eater-based conservation.
In addition, this book offers the first-ever list of foods at risk in
America (more than a thousand), shows how all of us can personally
support and participate in such recoveries, and lists food festivals
held across the continent to honor and enjoy some of the country’s most
iconic foods, from crab cakes to maple syrup and filé gumbo. Organized
by “food nations” named for the ecological and cultural keystone foods
of each region—Salmon Nation, Bison Nation, Chile Pepper Nation, among
others—this book offers an altogether fresh perspective on the culinary
traditions of North America.

The
Vitamin D Solution: A 3-Step Strategy to Cure Our Most Common
Health Problem by Michael F. Holick Ph.D., M.D.,
Hardcover; 336 pages
The world's leading expert on vitamin D reveals the missing link to
achieving optimal health.
Vitamin D deficiency is the most common medical condition in the world.
In America alone, over 200 million people lack sufficient levels of
vitamin D and may consequently suffer from chronic health conditions,
ranging from daily annoyances like fatigue and pain to life-threatening
illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. But few people
know why vitamin D is so important and what they can do to avoid the
myriad ailments associated with deficiency, including heart disease,
cancer, and osteoporosis.
There is no better person to demystify this vitamin and showcase its
place in human health than author Michael F. Holick, M.D., Ph.D.-the
father of modern vitamin D research. With more than three decades spent
studying the relationship between vitamin D, limited sun exposure, and
human well-being, Dr. Holick shares his findings on how combining the
natural curative properties of the sun along with small lifestyle
changes can help everyone to live a substantially healthier life.
Armed with a three-step plan incorporating safe amounts of sun exposure,
the right supplementation, and eating foods rich in vitamin D, Dr.
Holick provides prescriptive advice for anyone- from relatively healthy
people to those suffering from chronic or even fatal diseases- on how to
easily rebuild and maintain optimal levels of this essential hormone.
Rich with anecdotes and entertaining case studies, The Vitamin D
Solution also presents research from around the world to serve as a
wake-up call on this potentially lifesaving hormone for health.

Michael F. Holick, Ph.D., M.D., is the director of the General Clinical
Research Unit and professor of medicine, physiology, and biophysics at
Boston University Medical Center. He has been quoted in The New York
