Product Description
A macrobiotic diet is beneficial not just physically, but spiritually and emotionally. Consisting of nuts, grains, vegetables, and other foods that are primarily whole, living, and unprocessed, it combines foods in a way that balances the body’s energies. Modern-Day Macrobiotics is both a cookbook and a practical guide to understanding and adopting a macrobiotic lifestyle. Along with menus and complete eating plans – including a one-day tone-up, three-day detox, ten-day regeneration diet, and four-month healing diet – it helps readers tailor a diet to their specific needs. Nearly 80 recipes cover every meal of the day, including dessert, and are tagged with icons indicating what types of energy the dish imparts. Colorful reference charts help readers find useful information at a glance. Health benefits; buying and storing ingredients; shortcuts and ten-minute meals; and ordering in restaurants are also covered. Luscious, full-color photographs capture the vibrant flavors of this healthy, delicious diet.

Modern-Dat Macrobiotics
I didn't find this as useful as some others (like The Hip Chicks Guide to Macrobiotics), and many of the recipes use foods I don't eat. It is a good-looking book, and does contain helpful advice.

I found this book very informative and useful. It not only explains macrobiotics, it makes it easy to impliment this eating plan. Also, nice to look at.

great book ( meredithgayle )
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!

Modern Day Macrobiotics
Good basic introduction on macrobiotics with great recipes. This book has excellent photographs and descriptions of what macrobiotics is all about. If you are fairly new to macrobiotics, this is a great book, however, if you are already familiar with macrobiotics, you will not learn much in this book except to pick up a couple of new recipes. The Hip Chick's Guide to Macrobiotics is a great second book to read and is very entertaining.
