Why does
Patty do this work?
"Until 1982 I ate a Standard American Diet. I also experienced
health problems--upper and lower digestive and difficulties, weight
control issues, and sinus infections. I happened to get a job in a health
food store, and was introduced to the idea of a Vegetarian Diet. The
lights went on! This was intuitively appealing, so I started easing
into it. At first I stopped using dairy products, and soon eliminated
all meat, fish, and poultry. Soon, I started losing weight, digesting
easily, eliminating regularly, and being free of sinus infections.
"Within
a couple of years, I was eating an almost completely macrobiotic diet.
I began studying the writings of George Ohsawa, who brought macrobiotics
to America. My interest deepened, and a series of cooking classes with
Bonnie Breidenbach led to a three-year training-assistantship. Some
time went by, cooking and eating macrobiotic food, working in health
food stores and delis. I became Lenore Baum's assistant early in 1991,
and studied with her for two years. She recommended me to her students
for cooking in their homes. This began what I continue to do to this
date. I really enjoy cooking and helping people get their health back
on track!"
