Who is Michio Kushi?

Michio Kushi (along with his wife Aveline) introduced macrobiotics and the natural foods movement to this country nearly five decades ago! They talked about diet and lifestyle; and eating organic fruits and vegetables; eating locally grown; the value of eating sea vegetables; chewing your food well and wrapped up a spiritual practice of creating inner peace and gratitude in one’s life.

This may have been “novel” back 40 or 50 years ago, but now many Americans are “listening” and watching the foods they eat and are more conscious of stress and emotions on human health.

Mr Kushi who is now in his early 80’s, still lectures around the world about world peace. Many macrobiotic counselors who studied his philosophy are helping people and speaking to groups in many regions of America and in Europe and Asia.

There is a “Kushi Exhibit” at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History.

He was and is a catalyst and a teacher and a healer. Many of Mr Kushi’s books can be found online on Google.
