From the Publisher
The Macrobiotic Way is the definitive guide to
macrobiotics, written by the world\'s foremost authority on the subject, Michio
Kushi. More than thirty years ago, Mr. Kushi recognized that diet was a
principal cause of many illnesses, including cancer, and began teaching how the
macrobiotic diet, based upon nutritious whole grains, locally grown fresh
vegetables, protein-rich beans, and sea vegetables, can prevent health problems
and rejuvenate the body. Macrobiotics integrates the latest scientific research
in nutrition and health care with the common-sense practices of traditional
societies. In this beautifully illustrated edition, Mr. Kushi suggests a more
simple way of eating and living, in harmony with vital health and happiness.
Macrobiotic foods and cooking methods are described in detail, and a complete
exercise program, flexible enough to fit any need, is included. A superb
collection of recipes, sample menus, and dozens of suggestions about healthful
living make The Macrobiotic Way a truly practical guide.
