Herman Aihara is the leading authority on practical macrobiotics and natural living in the world today. More than fifty years ago he studied with George Ohsawa, the man who introduces macrobiotics to the West. Aihara, author of Acid and Alkaline and other books, has is educational background in Western science and has a unique ability to apply its analytical approach to the ancient philosophical wisdom of the Far East. This book explains macrobiotic diet and lifestyle from a nutritional perspective. The roles of protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals are clearly presented in an easy-to-understand manner. Besides answering practical nutritional questions, Aihara discussed such issues as how to tell when you are balanced, eating out, the application of the principles of yin and yang to health, and the search for the real meaning in life - the ultimate goal of macrobiotics. --- from book's back cover

The best book for beginners to understand Macrobiotics,
By A Customer
This review is from: Basic MacRobiotics (Paperback)
Herman gives very concise information, in an easy to understand format, as to how and why one might want to eat a Macrobiotic diet. He packs in a lot of statistical data and facts and figures, yet this doesn't overwhelm. A must read for anyone who's thinking about Macrobiotics. Now if only the publisher would print more!
