5.0 out of 5 stars Steers clear of the escoteric...wonderfully easy to follow!, April 28, 2003

This review is from: The Macrobiotic Way: The Complete Macrobiotic Diet & Exercise Book (Mass Market Paperback)
As a complete and utter novice to Macrobiotic dieting & lifestyle, I couldn't ask for a better definitive guide! This book avoids the lofty, philosophical language usually associated with natural & so-called "alternative" diets, and you don't have to drive a 1970 Volkswagon van to be in sync with its format! The staple foods are clearly explained (along with detailed definitions of the Asian foods, which may be fairly obscure to most Americans, me included). I became interested in this diet when Madonna brought it mainstream, but had reservations about my ability to manage it myself.... would I need a staff of professional celebrity-worthy chefs, like Madonna probably has, or could I follow its format on an every-day basis, including shopping & stocking the kitchen? With this book, the answer is "yes". I recommend it not only for a macrobiotic diet, but also for vegan dieters (as it excludes dairy & eggs, as well as meat).

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is life-changing., May 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Macrobiotic Way: The Complete Macrobiotic Diet & Exercise Book (Mass Market Paperback)
I think this book is the best introduction of the macrobiotic practice. It includes everything you need to know to begin and will give you plenty to think about for a long,long time. It is clear, interesting, thought-provoking, and challenging. It changed my life.
