what is Macrobiotics?

Macrobiotics is the practice of Big (Macro) Life (Bios) – a satisfying, long, happy life.  Good health helps us to live a Big Life. 

Much more than just the absence of disease, good health is about having vitality, motivation, suppleness, and clarity. 

Our good health is an expression of our relationships: to ourselves, to our family, to our friends and community, and to

our planet.

Macrobiotics also offers a profound understanding of the ways in which food creates and transforms us.

Food builds our blood, our bones, our nervous system; it constitutes every aspect of us.

Macrobiotics is a way of eating that emphasizes the use of wholegrains, beans and bean products, vegetables, seaweedsmiso and  other natural flavourings, as well as other unique, beneficial foods. 

Preparing natural ingredients like these according to macrobiotic principles will help

to give us complex sweetness;

to restore our vitality;

and to rehydrate us.
