"This book compiles nutritional facts you know to be true and hope to practice more dutifully, as well as facts you've never read, but felt in your body and intuition to be true. The recognition of these truths can thus be profound and emotional. Besides that, the book does not promote dogma, preferring individualized prescriptions based on constitution. Nor does it promote a single school of thought - macrobiotics, raw foods, etc. There are hundreds of recipes as well as instructions for how to prepare grains you've never heard of, bake bread, cut vegetables, combine foods for better digestion. It is beautiful in its scope and construction, and I highly recommend it as a definitive reference for nutritional healing."
