This review is from: Modern-Day Macrobiotics: Transform Your Diet and Feed Your Mind, Body and Spirit (Paperback)

At last a beautiful book on macrobiotics. Wonderful photographs, great information, easy to follow guidelines and tempting recipes. I am excited to recommend this book to my clients, students and friends. Simon presents a sometimes confusing philosophy in a clear and interesting manner which makes you want to dive in and have a go. This is a must for anyone who wants to make positive changes to their diet and lifestyle. Fantastic!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Modern-Day Macrobiotics: Transform Your Diet and Feed Your Mind, Body and Spirit (Paperback)

This book is a fabulous book , i highly recommend it. First off, it is beautifully laid out with the pictures and design. The book explains macrobiotics-- theory and diet, very well. Also, the recipes in the back section were great. I have made a few already. One of the best sections discusses how to be more efficient in macrobiotic cooking and meal preparation. When i first started with macrobiotics, i was spending a couple hours a day in the kitchen, but the advice given in the book has really helped me streamline my menus and time. I could not recommend this book more highly than i do!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book and Amazing author too!, June 4, 2007

Discount Natural Foods "Gary Miller" (Hooksett, NH) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Modern-Day Macrobiotics: Transform Your Diet and Feed Your Mind, Body and Spirit (Paperback)

I was thrilled to get a copy of Modern Day macrobiotics last year considering how the book does such a wonderful job in bringing macrobiotics into the modern ages. It covers the latest in scientific dietary theories so you are left with an understanding in how to incorporate these into your practice of macrobiotics. It also does a wonderful job in helping you to understand how to make macrobiotics work best for you, how do you want to live your life, and how to best adapt it around that. The recipes are wonderful, and the illustrations and pictures are breath taking, along with the wonderful and informative charts and graphic tools.

The best part is that you can join the author's yahoo group once you obtain the book, and this will help you to obtain maximum benefit from it.

I love macrobiotics. It's hard to follow in the everyday world, however, this book helps us find some much needed options to a world gone crazy with junk food and fast meals! Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good overview of the diet
This book serves as a pretty good overview of the diet but doesn't go into too much depth. Some of the recipes look pretty good but there really aren't that many.
