Review: The original - This is the grandfather of modern food consciousness . It is the original macrobiotic book, and does not have the recipes in other macro books that have strayed way off the path and actually include things like sweet desserts. It is based on the traditional Japanese foods and advocates a simple approach beginning with eating just rice to help the body flush out all the bad stuff accumulated through bad eating practices . The body then has a chance to recover and in many cases heal itself. Using its new clean state, the body is then able to make better choices about eating since it is now more aware of things like taste and the importance of preparation of food . What used to taste good in a restaurant, for example, is now revealed as a plate of food with a week's worth of salt and fat, a common practice in eating establishments and cooking shows. The only caveat is that it was written in the 1950's and does not factor in things like hypoglycemia when eating just rice. However, if it only increases awareness of eating, then it has done its job, and I highly recommend it if only for this reason alone.
Review: Five Stars - thank you.
