I’ve been practicing macrobiotics for more than 20 years now and can honestly say that it works. It all started in April 1999 when I attended Michio Kushi seminars and health consultation during his visit to Chicago.  The whole new world opened up for me, although I was familiar with many healthy lifestyle concepts. It was there, that I met Ella Zibitsker, who became my very close and special friend since then.

Macrobiotics saved my life. In 1998 I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, 4th stage, and aggressive form. I was told that nothing can be done, though in 9 months I was clear of cancer. It happened only because I discovered a wonderful world of Macrobiotics and great people at the Kushi Institute. I started practicing Macrobiotics right away and without any reservations. I'm very thankful for the help from my family, friends, and my counselor, Warren Kramer.
