MACROBIOTIC

Macrobiotic Medicine is part of ancient, thousand year old Eastern medicine. It developed in China 4,000 years ago when Tibetan monks came down from Tibet to spread Buddhism. The pioneering master of Macrobiotic Medicine in the 20th century was Michio Kushi, who popularized and practiced this technique throughout his life by giving lectures and participating in conferences in many countries around the world.

A way of life based on achieving health and longevity through balance in diet.

"Eat a balanced diet and let nature do its work." — Michio Kushi

The universe operates according to a natural order and laws, and human beings are part of that order, not separate from it. Health appears when our way of living diet, activity, rest, thoughts, and relationships aligns with that universal natural order (sodium-potassium balance).

This is where Macrobiotic Medicine becomes practical, applying this concept to conscious eating, which must adapt to:

• Nature and climate.

• Season of the year.

• Physical activity.

• Individual condition.

• Needs of our body.

The fundamental objective is to obtain a proper medical diagnosis by studying the patient's pathology (various symptoms) and identifying the organ or system that may be causing the illness. From there, the body is provided with the resources needed to achieve balance and health.
