FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2002

The First Nations Development Institute is holding the first-ever Native Food Summit this month.

The November 15-17 gathering will be held in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It will focus on trying to revive traditional Native diets and improve access to food.

A return to traditional foods is seen as helping prevent diabetes, health disease and other ailments that were almost unheard of until the early 1900s.
