I think it refers to downstream effects of intelligence and aptitudes. For example if I'm really smart, and I make a lot of money and leave my children a generous inheritance, their privilege is a residue of my gifted aptitude.

Pasteurized milk causes illness too. The key factors are the health of the cows and handling of the milk. If the cows are unhealthy, or if the dairy processing is done in an unclean space, then there could be problems. See The Untold Story

I have looked at all of these arguments in depth and recommend you read at least "The Untold Story of Milk" before making conclusions. The history of raw milk has been tainted with misinformed public policy. The dangers of unpaste

I'll admit that fermented food was also a common factor among all traditional societies, and yes its a good source of K. Price simply theorized K was the important factor, didn't prove it. But it almost doesn't matter what th

Yes it is. Pasteurization destroys the nutrients and beneficial bacteria. Raw milk from healthy cows is a probiotic like yogurt and extremely health promoting. People that are supposedly lactose intolerant are often able to drink raw milk

This is correct. The Expensive Tissue Hypothesis of brain/gut development pretty clearly shows that a switch to eating meat and hunting coincided with a shortening of our intestines and enlarging of our brain, making us human.

Maybe you could start this line of inquiry by comparing Price's research with these records of which you write.

the evidence for that was mostly based on Ancel Keys' work around the 1950s and it has been pretty clearly shown that he cherry picked the data in his observational study. When analyzed properly, the link between any kind of heart dise

It's prudent to note that raw, natural, unadulterated milk is very different from the processed stuff in stores, which has a dark history: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/19th-century-f... See also t

Price theorized that the missing element in Western diets was vitamin K, which is acquired in high amounts from animal fats. Every traditional diet had an adequate amount of animal fat, either in meat they ate, raw cheese, or raw whole milk

Yeah but mentioned Begg and doesn't mention Price. Begg advocated for mechanical intervention, Price advocated for nutritional intervention. Only mentioning Begg presents a biased view on possible therapies.

Its complex, but Price suggested vitamin K from animal fats was the key element. All traditional diets were heavy in animal fats, either meat or raw dairy/cheese. Vegetables and fruit were only eaten seasonally, and not in high volume.
