In the latest edition of this unique cookbook, internationally acclaimed actor Keith Michell draws aside the curtain of mystery that too often obscures macrobiotics. With an inimitable and entertaining style, Michell shows that being practically macrobiotic doesn't have to mean a life of food denial and strict diets, but instead can provide a way to enjoy eating heathily from the vast variety of foods that nature supplies. With the understanding of someone who has taken to heart a new way of life, Keith Michell explains just what macrobiotics is all about. He has painstakingly sought answers to the many questions commonly asked about the macrobiotic diet.

Great book in itself

I recently read Alicia Silverstone's book, The Kind Diet, in which she follows a vegan/macrobiotic diet. Already being vegan a short time, I wanted to know more about the macrobiotic part and am very pleased I purchased this book. It really explains what macrobiotics is and explains how & why to develop a healthy diet along with a lot of good recipes. I'd previously tried to stay away from all grains & ate just meats & vegetables, no fruit but I could not control my Diabetes type II. Keith Michell's Practically Macrobiotic Cookbook really works for me. I feel healthier with blood sugar levels pretty much under control. And, I already LOVED brown rice so it works great for me.

Anything Keith Michell writes or does is fine with me. After all, who can argue with Henry VIII? Handsome, youthful and still going strong, he must be doing something right. Maybe his role as the progressively aging, fat and unattractive Henry put him on the course for staying trim and vigorous into his 70s. I can't wait to read it!
