The author was successful in presenting a good introduction to macrobiotics. But she also maintained it to be the magic solution - for everything in your life. No need to work on your relationships with family, friends, co-workers and life in general. All you have to do is eat the macrobiotic way and your life will be perfect. There was that as well as it seemed she got much of her 'scientific' claims from whatever popped up in Google. Evidence-based medicine, peer-reviewed literature, quality sources??? ahh.. who needs them to write a book about diet and nutrition. Someone, somewhere on the Internet can be found that have made the most outlandish claims and we'll just use that for our data... (

This book is an eye opening for me. Jessica Porter is a great writer, entertainer and a achiever in healthy mind and body. she has a way of explaining very easily what Macrobiotics is all about. While reading this book, I have started to be a Macrobiotics person. I feel better already. (

Reading this book is like sitting down and having a chat with Jess (one of my macro teachers and a Portland friend). She's smart and funny, and best of all, she uses a movie anology to explain the roles foods play in your health.

Favorite recipes include ... (stay tuned, I don't have the book with me)
