KIJ -Kushi Institute of Japan-

Modern people are about to lose many precious things as they are away from nature. On the other hand, there are still some people deeply connected with nature and living in it. They do not eat processed foods, which are harvested without using pesticides, and get enough exercise to be in a good shape.

We may not live a primitive life like traditional people. However, they can adopt the meal, which is good for health. The one is a meal method called macrobiotics.

The basic way of thinking of macrobiotics is very simple. They mainly eat unpolished cereals in the local place where they live in the time. They take in a natural blessing without doing processing and the refinement with being natural. They practice a plain and natural meal method making a model of Japanese tradition food, and it is a way of thinking to maintain the health of mind and body.

In addition, we apply Orient thought to a meal to assume that a human body consists of the energy balance of Ying and Yang, and there is a theory to fix the balance of Yin and Yang by food in the core of macrobiotics.

However, Kushi Macrobiotics, which Michio Kushi proposes for the first time, is not only a simple meal law. It is the universal way of life for the human race to be necessary when it develops biologically, psychologically, and mentally. It saves people from their extinction, and they are to accomplish further development.
