Michio Kushi's Standard Macrobiotic Diet
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
An essential reference for anyone pursuing the macrobiotic lifestyle. This slim volume is just the nuts and bolts--but the complete nuts and bolts--of the so-called standard macrobiotic diet, meaning the diet which forms the basis of all individual versions of it. It's where you start, and it's where you return if you lose your way on the journey. You'll find it indispensable as a beginner, and a most useful reference if you are a teacher of macrobiotics, or a macrobiotic counselor. Michio analyzes the standard diet into its component food categories: grains, beans, sea vegetables, land vegetables, animal foods, fruits, and so on; seasonings, cooking methods, and special dishes as well as symptomatic treatments and basic recipes. It's the clearest presentation you can imagine. As a macrobiotic counselor I keep a supply on hand for my clients.
