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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the benefits of a Macrobiotics diet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eWith the emphasis on vegetables, fruits and whole grains, the macrobiotic diet contains a large amount of dietary fibre and is rich in many important vitamins and minerals. This diet also restricts the intake of saturated fat, cholesterol, sugar, alcohol, and processed foods, all of which are known to negatively impact health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eAs a result, it is likely that anyone eating a western type diet could improve their overall health by adopting a carefully planned macrobiotic diet.

Vegetables make up the next largest proportion of the diet, which is 20-30% by weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eSome examples of vegetables for daily use are green cabbage and broccoli. Examples of vegetables not recommended for regular use are potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eIt is also recommended that the vegetables be local and organically grown, with the majority being cooked. Suggested cooking styles include lightly steamed or boiled or sautéed with a small amount of unrefined, cold pressed oil. Soups and beans and sea vegetables equally make up the last two categories of the diet each weighing in at 5-10%. Recommended beans include azuki beans, chickpeas and lentils. Soups may be made from ingredients referred to in the other categories. Foods to eliminate from the diet for better health include meat, animal fat, eggs, poultry and dairy products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eClean, clear, natural spring or well water is an important resource for macrobiotic cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat vitamins are good for the Macrobiotic Diet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eThe following nutrients should be monitored because of their importance in facilitating growth and function: calcium, protein, iron, zinc, vitamin D, vitamin B12, riboflavin, vitamin A, omega-3 fatty acids.
