The diets of healthy primitive and non-industrialized people contained no refined or denatured foods such as refined sugar, corn syrup, white flour, canned foods, pasteurized, homogenized, skim or low fat foods, refined or hydrogenated vegetables oils, protein powders, artificial additive and colorings. Sally Fallon, the foundations president explains the importance of returning to organic farming, pasture-fed livestock and whole traditional foods, properly prepared, if Americans are to regain their health and vitality, and return to an economy based on small scale organic production and food processing that returns added value to the independent farmer, rather than to large scale food procesing conglomerates. Foods that we have been told are bad for us are now slowly being recognized as the elixir of good health.

The Colorado Springs South Chapter provides opportunities for FUN and FELLOWSHIP by organizing social gatherings such as workshops, cooking classes, and potluck meals using the recipes from "Nourishing Traditions" or other original "Traditional Recipes" using not only organic, but nutrient dense ingredients. We each of course are ultimately responsible for being good stewards and protecting our health and the health of those we care for, but as members of this chapter we support one another in this wonderful life preserving adventure. Membership is free of charge.
