I first read your book two years ago and keep going back to it time and time again. I practiced macrobiotics (strictly) for about a year to deal with stress, PMS, some acne, etc. Needless to say, I experienced so many wonderful changes. Well then I started to question why 'juicing' is somewhat of a no no in macrobiotic circles, and the use of raw honey, green food supplements etc. Does it mean I'm less macro if I incorporate these practices into my daily regimen? I look at a banana and think, oh no, you're tropical, can't be good for me (but I really want the banana :) I can honestly say that I've come a long way from the sugar treats of the past, processed foods, salt, meat, night shades, etc. I eat a clean diet and I can't wrap my mind around the idea that juicing is somewhat of a 'bad' thing because it causes too much expansion when there are tons and tons of testimonials of people whose lives have changed by incorporating that into their diet. Do you know what I mean? What do you think? Much appreciated, Grace from Toronto, Canada! Hello Jessica:
