What is Macrobiotics?
Macrobiotics means "long" or "great" life. It is a natural, holistic approach to diet and lifestyle.
Physical and emotional wellness is achieved through consuming nutritionally and energetically balanced foods. There is no specific diet, only general principles that are recommended for optimum health.
One must consider climate, activity level, gender, and overall health condition. Low fat, high fiber, unprocessed foods including a wide variety of vegetables, grains, beans, sea vegetables, nuts and seeds, along with fresh fruit generally make up a well balanced diet. There has been enough research done to prove this diet is ideal – and when you live it, you ask yourself "how did I live before?" The macrobiotic philosophy further improves one's quality of life by providing guidance: what quantities, what to avoid, when to eat, how to prepare your food, and so forth.
A macrobiotic lifestyle has been found to be helpful for weight loss or maintaining weight, it has anti-aging benifits, and naturally wards off illness and disease because it provides essential vitamins and nutrients in their purest form. Furthermore, it increases energy and stabilizes mood and emotions. Those who try it find it hard to live any other lifestyle – it simply feels "right."
Certain food preferences, allergies, and ailments are always considered for specialized diets. Ask about individual healing diets to aid in your health and wellness journey.
