Services

Health
Consultations

A macrobiotic health consultation is a personal session that
focuses on specific health and life style concerns for following
a macrobiotic way of life. The session begins with
an extensive evaluation based on visual diagnosis, symptomatic
history, personal needs and past life style. Specific
recommendations describe a healthy way of life according to
macrobiotic understanding, including dietary practice and
energy flow. These concepts have been practiced traditionally throughout
the world with great success in correcting many conditions of
health. We
make no guarantee concerning the amelioration of your
particular challenges, but if you wish to learn how to enjoy and
benefit from our recommendations, we would be pleased to assist
you.

Non-Credo E-Zine
Interviews
 |
Yogen Kushi began this internet magazine in May, 2001. His
goal was," To build a strong community of people living
macrobiotically." He accomplished this through monthly updates on
macrobiotic affairs; in depth profiles of and interviews with macro
people worldwide; educational essays on basic and advanced macro theory
and practice; recipes and cooking tips; and answers to personal
questions by Michio Kushi and other leading teachers. Many of my
articles were featured in the pages of Non Credo, which we publish here. |

Audio
Interviews

|
Scores of individual interviews conducted by Ginat over a period
of three years from 2000 to 2003 are available here. These interviews
relay the journeys of macrobiotic friends
healing serious health issues either through personal
involvement or as macrobiotic counselors. They form the
precursor to an upcoming book on health and healing called
Food, Faith & Healing. |

Macrobiotic
Research
 |
In early 2002 we were retained by the University of South
Carolina's School of Public Health to study the relationship
between cancer and macrobiotics. The results of this study,
previously
available at the University of South Carolina website is now available here.

Macrobiotic
Directory

|
As part of our research for the University of South Carolina in
2002, we collected data on macrobiotic services and activities
in 44 communities throughout the United States. The
data was based on telephone interviews and nationwide travel. Our
intention is to update this data as an ongoing international
directory.
This directory, previously available at the University of South
Carolina website, is now
available here. |
