My new article from the Fall, 2012 issue of Wise Traditions, the quarterly journal of the Weston A. Price Foundation, is now up online! The article covers several examples of nutrient synergy: how methionine, B vitamins, and glycine interact to regulate methylation; how vitamins A, D and K interact to regulate growth and calcification; and how magnesium is universally important, with its regulation of calcium metabolism as an example. If you'd like to read it, you can find it here:

If you like these articles and you'd like to offer financial support to the Weston A. Price Foundation, I highly suggest becoming a member, which entitles you among other things to a free subscription to the quarterly journal. It's much more pleasant to read these articles in print format than online, and you get to read them before they go online. The upcoming winter journal will carry my article, “Nutritional Adjuncts For the Fat-Soluble Vitamins,” based off one of my talks at the November conference, which covers the roles of zinc, magnesium, fat, carbohydrate, thyroid hormone, and carbon dioxide in supporting the fat-soluble trio, A, D, and K. If you'd like to become a member, you can do so for $40 ($25 for students, seniors, unemployed, and disabled) here.
Enjoy!
