The once common infectious diseases including TB, diphtheria and scarlet fever have largely been eradicated through better hygiene and antibiotics. Yet, not much attention has been paid to the dietary and lifestyle causes of these problems. There are natural ways to treat allergies. Learn more in this article.
It doesn't matter if global warming is a natural cycle or due to human efforts or a combination. That's not the point. The point is that debating the issue is not going to help us move into a healthy, happy, prosperous future for ourselves and the planet. Earth is living and it doesn't make sense [...]
9 Ki is a way of observing social phenomena from an energetic perspective based on Nature’s growing cycle.

Emotions are a bridge between the mind and body. When we eat local and unrefined food, prepared with care and love, our mind follows with flowing, harmonious emotions. Our natural state is a calm, peacefulness, flowing into joy. Healthy emotions allow us to deal smoothly with all aspects of life. As the seasons shift, as [...]
The Atlantic recently published an article about broccoli sprout tea: http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/06/the-only-reason-anyone-would-eat-broccoli/372899/ Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables have similar effects on mitigating air pollution. Chemo-prevention is much better than chemo-therapy.
I've recently received this story from a woman, Sheron, in response to my previous entry about T. Colin Campbell and her take on The Great Life Diet. Thank you, Sheron! She writes: “There is nothing better than the balance of a Macrobiotic diet and lifestyle. I am committed to following Macrobiotics for the rest [...]
American society has a general notion that we are neither in control of our genes nor the environmental factors which cause disease. Under this assumption, many may be throwing up their hands and wondering: What’s the use of trying to prevent disease when it is inevitable? A current medical assumption is that early detection [...]
I’ve written two blogs about breast cancer, both describing what things to do in order to greatly decrease your risk of developing it.

In my last post, I was trying to help others understand about Macrobiotics and disease. The recent news of Angelina Jolie’s preventive double mastectomy concerned me because women look to her and could repeat this procedure. I hope that someday everyone can understand that there is another way to prevent disease, especially breast cancer. I [...]

After Superstorm Sandy has slammed the mid-Atlantic and Northeast, it is hard to imagine that nature alone is responsible. Even if you deny that there is global warming and that we are at least part of the cause, it is hard to miss the fact that the severity of storms and earthquakes is steadily [...]
I just finished reading this blog on metabolism and it brought a number of things to mind for me. I have heard many people’s stories about exercising on a regular basis and loosing little to no weight. I have also heard stories about personal trainers who could not loose the bulge in their [...]
It seems common sense to me that food nourishes us on many levels including our mind, and that a healthy body and mind are the prerequisites for developing a strong and effective educational system. There has been a lot in the media recently about how Americans are comparing unfavorably with many other nations in [...]
Helen Stevenson was a dear friend for many years. She passed on July 16 and she is missed already. Helen had a gentle smile and a wacky sense of humor. She also had a sharp tongue when needed and an ability to just shrug things off after. We became friends when we sat next to [...]
