I am posting this message of behalf of Alice, who emailed me with a question on Nikken Products. She would have posted herself but had trouble getting into the forum.

I know that this has always been a bit of a controversial topic in macrobiotics, those that swear by the products, and those that think that it is nothing more than a giant MLM program. Let's see if we can get some educated opinions on the products, both good and bad. I myself really know almost nothing about them myself to offer one.

Here is Alice's question as she wrote it. Hopefully with this account now setup for her, she may be able to respond to her comments herself. Hopefully we will get some interesting ones

Hi to all:

I am interested to hear if any macrobiotic people have experience with Nikken Products.

I know that electricity and microwave ovens are detrimental to your health. What about magnets?
Nikken Products have mattresses to sleep on and products with magnets to wrap around the body.

They also claim to have a water filter that has spring-like qualities---magnetic, filters and mineralizes.
