| | | What are the guidelines of this diet?
Whole grains -- 50-60% of each meal
Whole grains include brown rice, whole wheat berries, barley, millet, rye, corn, buckwheat, and other whole grains. Rolled oats, noodles, pasta, bread, baked goods, and other flour products can be eaten occasionally.
Soup -- 1 to 2 cups or bowls of soup per day
Miso and shoyu, which are made from fermented soybeans, are commonly used.
Vegetables -- 25-30% of daily food intake
Up to one-third of the total vegetable intake can be raw. Otherwise, vegetables should be steamed, boiled, baked, and sauteed.
Beans -- 10% of daily food intake
Cooked beans or bean products such as tofu, tempeh, and natto.
Animal Food -- Small amount of fish or seafood several times per week. Avoid meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy.
Consume with horseradish, wasabi, ginger, mustard, or grated daikon to help the body detoxify from the effects of fish and seafood.
Seeds and Nuts -- In moderation.
Seeds and nuts can be lightly roasted and salted with sea salt or shoyu.
Local Fruit -- Several times a week.
Apples, pears, peaches, apricots, grapes, berries, melons, and other fruit. Avoid tropical fruit such as mango, pineapple, papaya.
Desserts -- In moderation, 2-3 times per week.
Desserts can be enjoyed by people who are in good health. Emphasize naturally sweet foods such as apples, squashes, adzuki beans, and dried fruit. Natural sweeteners such as rice syrup, barley malt, and amazake can be used. Avoid sugar, honey, molasses, chocolate, carob, and other sweeteners.
Cooking Oil -- Use unrefined vegetable oil.
The most common is dark sesame oil. Other oils that are recommended are light sesame oil, corn oil, and mustard seed oil.
Condiments and Seasonings
Commonly used seasonings include natural sea salt, shoyu, brown rice vinegar, umeboshi vinegar, umeboshi plums, grated ginger root, fermented pickles, gomashio (roasted sesame seeds), roasted seaweed, and sliced scallions. |
