By Edward Kushi Mochi, Kushi Michio, Michio Kushi, et al.

Book Overview

This revised and expanded edition points to diet and lifestyle changes as a long-lasting solution to cancer.

More than thirty-five years ago, Michio Kushi began saying that diet was a principal cause of cancer. He pointed out that a diet based on whole grains, sea and land vegetables, beans, and seasonal fruits could prevent, and in many cases, help reverse the process of cancer.

In this edition of The Macrobiotic Approach to Cancer, Kushi details the macrobiotic diet and lifestyle that has helped thousands of individuals recover from illness and find better health and peace of mind. This edition also includes twelve moving personal stories of cancer victims who overcame illness through macrobiotics.

Customer Reviews

Read it if you have cancer.

Eighteen years ago I began the macrobiotic diet and lifestyle after attending a "Diet and Cancer" seminar and having a consultation with Michio Kushi. It was 9 months after I found a lump in my breast. I also did a lot of work on myself in order to heal but the diet was/is crucial as well. I am glad I eat that way, even now! I had the lumps taken out but no radiation or chemotherapy.
