Macrobiotics is an approach to physical and emotional wellness through consuming foods that are balanced energetically (between yin and yang) and nutritionally. It is typically a well-balanced diet with high fibre, low fat, lots of vegetables and grains, vegetable protein, and limited meat, with an emphasis on eating seasonal organic food. Macrobiotics is a diet based on whole grains and vegetables along with small amounts of fish, fruit and sea vegetables. Adherents of this diet avoid sugar, meat other than fish, dairy products and all artificial chemicals. Sticking to this diet requires a high level of self-discipline, but carefully planned and varied menus will make it easier and save you time when you shop and cook. Variety is worked into the meal to ensure that a wide range of nutrients are consumed for balance and enjoyment.
