where can i find Daikon should i get it from the supermarket or the farmers market? Also do u know of any macrobiotic classes that are taught in New Jersey?
Hi Alexis,
Daikon directly from the farmer’s market is a gem! Also, usually Whole Foods has organic daikon with tops, and you can ask your produce
manager there to please keep the tops on for you! Often they are removed to fit the daikon into the small section allowed, and alas, some
of the most nutritious part is tossed. Warren Kramer teaches awesome cooking classes in New Jersey. Please check out his website for the
New Jersey/New York calendar or email warrenkramer@verizon.net. or phone is 617 . 803 . 6597.
Wishing you all the very best in your macrobiotic journey towards health! And if you are in Atlanta, please let us know! marsha and fred rueff
My husband has had blood clots recently for which coumadin was prescribed he also had an A Fib 13 years ago and then again after the second time he went in for blood clots and was re prescribed the coumadin. The first time the blood clots occured was about 2 years before and he was on coumadin and then he was taken off after about 6 months. There are no aparent reasons for either other then maybe genetics. Would he be better off on a macrobiotic diet? If so, how does one go about doing this right. I am so afraid to do the wrong thing.

Years ago I followed a macrobiotic diet. Back then you could walk into any health food store and buy Amasake. It seems impossible to find these days. Do you know why, or where I can find some?
Thanks
Yes Joanna, we order from http://www.Rhapsodynaturalfoods.org. from Montpelier, Vermont. They are a small restaurant and you’ll be delighted knowing they ship on Mondays, just place your order by Friday, and you can email.Or call 802-229-6112. We also order their Tempeh, which still has Vitamin B-12 in it because of the manner processing within a small environment. We order the larger 2 pound size which costs 40 % less than the small size, and it is delish-ious! We resisted ordering for the longest time, and finally our macrobiotic counselor Warren Kramer kept after us, til we tried it, and after that we were hooked. Even bought a second refrigerator/freezer so we could bring in all we need for the year by the end of March, and take advantage of the colder weather shipping to Atlanta! They recently told us their local business is not substantial enough to keep their amasake orders going, but their national orders are, so we are delighted to help support their great efforts for quality by ordering their two products! Enjoy, and thank you so much for writing!
I am looking at that recipe, it looks delicious…..
Oh, it is! Use the Mayer lemons – that’s the trick, and you might find them at Whole Foods in your area! Otherwise, use
less lemon, and sweet to taste, or it might be a bit sour. Course that is the taste for this time of year, nurturing our livers,
lovin’ that sour taste!
If you are ever in Atlanta, come on over and take our macrobiotic cooking classes! we are almost neighbors! good luck in this
wonderful journey towards health!
Let me start by saying excellent site. Im not sure if it has been addressed, however when using Firefox I can never get the whole site to load without refreshing alot of times. Could just be my computer. Thanks
Thanks so much for taking time to reply to our site. I am using a mac computer, so Safari is the button i enter website world, and
godaddy is my website host. If that helps, surely hope it is all compatible with Firefox. My nephew loves Firefox, but he’s in Uganda
helping bring solar lightbulbs there, and i’ll see if he can give me some answers about this, or the Apple store. Will try to make this
easier for you!
