This completely revised and updated 25th anniversary edition includes: - Broader dietary guidelines and new recipes - New research on the 20 most frequent types of cancer - New ways to combine macrobiotics with chemotherapy, radiation, and more - The latest statistics, studies, and treatments - The role of positive emotions in the healing process
