Summary

"Matrix of Nutrition" aligns progressive nutritional science with macrobiotics' balance of vegetal, whole food nutrition. Major health organizations advise reducing and eliminating the same adulterated foods and eating the same whole foods as macrobiotics. Harmon indicts the neglect of public health in a world ambivalent to the dietary guidelines of major health organizations and today's new science of nutrition.
Discover an evolution of hunter-gatherers foraging vegetation; learning to cook with fire; and cultivating grains, beans, and vegetables that became the three primary food groups of humans. "Matrix of Nutrition" reveals the vegetal whole foods proven to advance health and the processed/refined foods, animal products, and simple sugars proven to degrade health. "Matrix" exposes the misdirection of nutrition by industry, media, education, TV, and even healthcare.
"Matrix" discloses macrobiotics' Unifying Principle in a new light that reveals the physics of yin/yang, its history, and its dichotomy. Macrobiotics' principle of unification becomes the missing link in progressive nutritional science. The theme of "Matrix" is the correlation of adulterated food and illness. The focus of "Matrix" is the correlation of vegetal whole food and wellness. Harmon presents a primer for discerning information from misinformation in a world of health agendas and diets that misguide and fail.
