5.0 out of 5 stars Read it if you have cancer., Nov 29 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Macrobiotic Approach to Cancer (Paperback)
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.

1.0 out of 5 stars welcome to the club, Jun 22 2003
This review is from: Macrobiotic Approach to Cancer (Paperback)
This diet is not scientific, not really Japanese. Michio Kushi makes you put away meat, he should do the same with cigarettes. My mom read this book, spent [money] on personal visits, applied the diet (depriving herself of vitamins, protein), waited 6 month to see effects (while not seing the doctor), talked to a "cured" patient from Chicago (phoned her from Boston). Where is she now? Well, heaven I hope, but surely not among the living. If you are sick, see the doctor, and if you prefer to die with all your organs, at least buy something to spend your time well, and not this useless, lying book, the proceedings of which will perhaps be used in advertising this harmful "diet".

1.0 out of 5 stars A bit of honesty, please..., Sep 26 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Macrobiotic Approach to Cancer (Paperback)
Sadly, both Michio Kushi's wife and one daughter have died of cancer. Being that they were Japanese, the healthiest and longest lived people in the world, this doesn't really speak well for the diet.

However, it does seem that macrobiotics, when taken with common sense, have been known to help cancer patients, some say to the extent of "curing" them. It's easy to find examples to prove everything and the contrary (and no one mentions the ones that have died of the various deficiencies that easily befall macrobiotics followers).

Follow your own instincts... and keep in touch with a trusted doctor!
