without going into too much detail, this may help those who have tried just about everything and still having some difficulty.
although i am a very big advocate for macrobiotics, this doesn't require you to become macrobiotic. just requires 20-30 minutes of your time daily for about 60 days, which i also don't think have to be continuous but more like every other day or 2-3 times per week until you have done 60 treatments.
good luck. i am going to start in october!
