But not the Kindle edition. See below. Originally published 1939, this book has been called one of the most important books of the 20th century, because it preserves knowledge that would otherwise have been lost after WWII.The big problem with the Kindle edition is the tiny size of the photos.The 134 photos, each originally worth on average a thousand words (approx value: 134,000 words, or roughly once again the value of the book itself, which is 136,665 words), are so tiny on the Kindle as to be virtually useless. Much was lost in translation to digital.Wonderful book; everyone should read it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important for soon to be parents *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2020* Great information. Physical degeneration has occurred as a result of modern diets that don’t provide the same amount of vitamins, minerals, body building and regenerative materials as traditional diets. What’s more is that the human body needs the right mix of foods to be able to effectively absorb the needed vitamins and minerals, and this mix is missing for many moderns. For example, some vitamins need animal fat to be absorbed. Our diets today are unbalanced and we give think of food more as energy (calories) than as regenerative, body building material. Primitive tribes thought of food in the later way and made great efforts to obtain certain needed foods.The effects of physical degeneration can be seen in just one generation after adopting the modern diet. Dr. Price shows many examples of native peoples before and after adopting modern diets, even comparisons between siblings, and the images are striking. Therefore, it is important for soon to be parents to strive to obtain the best nutrition possible. Nutritional decencies in the parents, even at the time of conception, can result in malformed children.My main complaint is that there are many typos and the pictures could be better quality, at least in this edition. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Specialist's book *by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2021* This book was published about eighty years ago. In my opinion, as a retired physician with a particular interest in nutrition and pre written history humans, this is strictly for the specialist with those types of interest. Through my life the concepts of diet and heredity have fluctuated back and forth between the experts. This book gives a convincing argument for the cause of dental caries, facial and jaw deformity, and the need to focus on nutrients as opposed to energy foods. Much is clearly out of date, but still food for thought. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/80625763-nutrition-and-physical-degeneration-a-comparison-of-primitive-and-modern](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/80625763-nutrition-and-physical-degeneration-a-comparison-of-primitive-and-modern) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
