Eating macrobiotic foods –
primarily whole, living, unprocessed foods, all naturally
low on the glycaemic index – can make key improvements
to your state of health and your state of mind, particularly
relevant with today’s hardworking and stressful
lifestyles. A macrobiotic diet works by balancing several
factors in your system, including blood sugar, sodium,
and mineral levels, and, perhaps most essentially, your
“chi” energy. We all have this energy, but
there are times when its movement becomes blocked –
when you feel at a low ebb; stressed or worried; or
when a medical condition interferes with the movement
of chi – which is where a macrobiotic diet can
help.
Modern-day Macrobiotics
offers practical guidance on the principles of macrobiotics
and how to design a macrobiotic diet that will work
for you. It includes:
- A range of eating programmes
that target your specific needs: from the 1 day tone-up
to the 3 month healing plan.
- Advice on the major health
benefits that a macrobiotic diet can have for all
ages.
Information on all the foods that make up the macrobiotic
store cupboard and what they are good for.
- A collection of great tasting
recipes that will nourish and sustain you
Where to buy the ingredients and how to store them.
