"There is something to be said for this fad, I think, given the fact that there is so little food in our food today, and so much toxic sludge. If you want an introduction to macrobiotics, I would recommend this book. If nothing else, it educated me about many different foods I had never even heard of. It was fun going to Whole Foods afterward and spotting things I otherwise would not have noticed. Kale is yummy! I'm looking forward to trying out some of the recipes. The author is pretty funny, and I like the spiritual lessons herein, the explanations of yin and yang with regard to food and more. I would never be able to go whole hog with this (no way I'm giving up dairy), but feeling very yang this morning...maybe I'll go eat a carrot top, hold the carrot."
"My favorite book on Macrobiotics to date. I like how the author mentioned that men and women have to adapt the diet differently. Men get 50-60% grains and women get 50-60% veggies and only 20% Grains. I also like how flexible the diet is. You have to clearly avoid some things for maximum health benefits, but you don't have to be so strict about it. You can slide every once in a while. My mom is now adapting her lifestyle to Macrobiotics Diet/Principles after reading this book too : )"
"This book presents a very interesting alternative to "diets" as it's approach concerns understanding the yin and yang balance that exists in each of us. It may appear to be quite radical from "normal" Western cookbooks. However, after reading Dirk Benedick's account of how he healed himself from prostate cancer by using this approach, I believe strongly that it is very much worth exploring, especially if one possesses some sort of phyical illness or condition that has not been successfully cured by convention medicine."
