Dr. Weston Price (Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation) in his search of
villages,
tribes, etc.that ate only indiginous foods and none of the displacing foods of
commerce never found a vegan society that had good nutrition as he measured
by
good dentition (straight teeth without caries and well formed dental arches).

Many people, including myself, believe in the necessity of animals in a
sustainable
farming system and see them as much a part of permaculture as plants.
