Download or read book Nourishment written by Fred Provenza and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2018 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflections on feeding body and spirit in a world of change Animal scientists have long considered domestic livestock to be too dumb to know how to eat right, but the lifetime research of animal behaviorist Fred Provenza and his colleagues has debunked this myth. Their work shows that when given a choice of natural foods, livestock have an astoundingly refined palate, nibbling through the day on as many as fifty kinds of grasses, forbs, and shrubs to meet their nutritional needs with remarkable precision. In Nourishment Provenza presents his thesis of the wisdom body, a wisdom that links flavor-feedback relationships at a cellular level with biochemically rich foods to meet the body's nutritional and medicinal needs. Provenza explores the fascinating complexity of these relationships as he raises and answers thought-provoking questions about what we can learn from animals about nutritional wisdom. What kinds of memories form the basis for how herbivores, and humans, recognize foods? Can a body develop nutritional and medicinal memories in utero and early in life? Do humans still possess the wisdom to select nourishing diets? Or, has that ability been hijacked by nutritional "authorities"? Consumers eager for a "quick fix" have empowered the multibillion-dollar-a-year supplement industry, but is taking supplements and enriching and fortifying foods helping us, or is it hurting us? On a broader scale Provenza explores the relationships among facets of complex, poorly understood, ever-changing ecological, social, and economic systems in light of an unpredictable future. To what degree do we lose contact with life-sustaining energies when the foods we eat come from anywhere but where we live? To what degree do we lose the mythological relationship that links us physically and spiritually with Mother Earth who nurtures our lives? Provenza's paradigm-changing exploration of these questions has implications that could vastly improve our health through a simple change in the way we view our relationships with the plants and animals we eat. Our health could be improved by eating biochemically rich foods and by creating cultures that know how to combine foods into meals that nourish and satiate. Provenza contends the voices of "authority" disconnect most people from a personal search to discover the inner wisdom that can nourish body and spirit. That journey means embracing wonder and uncertainty and avoiding illusions of stability and control as we dine on a planet in a universe bent on consuming itself.

Adjusting to his new life, Farmer Fred decided to keep a daily journal, detailing his efforts towards restoring the family farm and helping the local community. Day 15: 2300 dollars It's my third week on the farm and everything is going well. A little slow, but definitely well. In my first few days on the farm, I've focused on clearing land and building enough materials to begin rebuilding the farm and restocking its equipment. I must have cut hundreds of trees and gathered many logs of wood! I've also started exploring the mines and mining for copper ore. Now, this week, I've found a section of the mine that has iron ore, and I can't wait to mine some. I will need iron ore to make iron bars, which I can shape into gates or use to craft equipment such as barrels to age vegetables into sauce, wine, or juice. I start the day by watering my plants. I know this can be boring to do every single morning, but I know that hard work pays off! While I'd love to spend the day relaxing or fishing, I know this won't help me rebuild the farm, so I head over to the local mines again. I follow my map to the section of the mine on the 40th floor where I found some iron ore on the previous day. I begin prospecting the ore and digging into the wall and find a few pieces of ore. I continue on into the mine, reaching the 45th section of the mine. Instead of going deeper at this point, I head back up to the 40th floor, while searching for even more ore. This extra exploration pays off, as I found a few more pieces of iron ore! At around 9pm I head back home. I had a great day of work in the mines and I am tired. Luckily, I brought several fruit snacks and granola bars to keep my energy up. I decide to try to fish some more in my small pond. Although I don't catch any big fish, I do improve my fishing ability and my comfort with using a rod. The moon quickly rises in the sky, and it is now midnight. I know I need to get some sleep, so I head to bed. Today was a great day!
