    I made this video coz living both in the US and Japan made me realize a lot of difference in daily habits.
    also, thank you so much for all the love on my last video❤I’m planning another video around quitting 9-5 & I can't wait to share with you soon✨

    Listing down so I remember better:
    1. Start your day with hot water
    2. Go hard for breakfast
    3. Balanced meals with the right knowledge of nutrition
    4. Eat fermented foods
    5. Drink green tea and matcha
    6. Only eat until your 80% full
    7. Use small plates, and eat a little bit of everything
    8. Show gratitude before and after meals
    9. Consume vinegar
    10. Eat slowly

      Vinegar or anything with it that’s fermented is a no go for me. After Covid, I can’t handle it. It literally will burn my throat and cause breathing issues 😢

    The eating quickly thing hit me so hard. I used to eat very quickly, all my life I’ve only seen food as ‘something I need to do to keep myself alive’ before I move on to the next thing. I was a very active kid, with a very busy schedule of sport activities, school, extra curricular etc, so meals was always something I had to quickly do in between, I never took the time to sit down and enjoy. My boyfriend has taught me the importance of eating well and eating and cooking together to make our bond stronger. It is now truly one of my favorite things in my day, and I make the time to be intentional with my food, my boyfriend and all the resources that have provided us with this meal. 🙏

    In Brazil we show gratitude before and after the meal too, at the beginning we pray thanking the food and the willingness of those who prepared it, after eating we say "Deus que ajude" which means "God bless whoever prepared the meal" is a Sign of gratitude and respect ❤

      Even in Sweden it is considered good manners to thank (the cook, the hosts etcetera) for the dinner before you leave the table. And we also have those coloured charts in school to learn about nutrition and balance, called "the food circle". Our famous fermented, salted herring divides the nation, though. Some hate it because of the smell, others - like me - love it.

    Thank you! I was born and raised in Russia and we don't drink cold beverages and consume manyyyyyyyyyyyy fermented foods and probiotics. However, when I moved abroad I stopped eating probiotics and fermented food and I felt fatigued and gained lots of weight. Currently, I live in Thailand and I don't have access to Russian food but I really like Japanese fermented dishes and they make me really happy =)

    This video made me feel ashamed of myself for being Japanese and doing none of those things, EXCEPT the 80%-full rule! Once it becomes a habit, it's easy to do! It could be one of the reasons why I have less stomach issues now than before. Weirdly enough, I love doing the dishes, by the way.

    The scene where you talked about your brother eating too fast and your mom telling him to eat slower brought an old memory of the adults in my family telling me I would eat too slow as a kid and needed to eat faster. I remember always feeling bad when they'd tell me I was a slow eater.

    I drink at least one cup of green tea a day (on top of my morning matcha) and have recently gotten in the habit of gently rubbing my used tea bag on the skin of my face once I a have finished drinking. Green tea is a natural toner that may also stain your skin until you wash it next. It always leaves me feeling like I am glowing a bit more. It may also help that my skin has an olive tone, and the tea emphasizes that.
    Either way, anyone can do this to absorb the antioxidants directly into your skin!

    Hi, I never comment on videos but I am commenting on yours because it means so much to me that you can share Japanese culture with me. I am a Japanese girl who grew up in America who never really got the chance to truly know more about my culture until later in life (due to personal reasons). I love the "fun facts" you put in your videos about japan, like getting to know about how you learn what foods are healthy in school are amazing because I always grew up wishing they would do that in america. The more I Iearn about my culture the more japanese I realize I am. Please don't stop making these videos, I get to see more about my culture through what you share!

    The 80% rule is interesting. I began practicing it decades ago without even knowing it! I stopped eating before I was full or even before my taste buds (so to speak) were satisfied. I am not sure what prompted me to do this but I always stayed slim. I fell out of this practice some years ago and also entered my senior years (= slower metabolism) at the same time and you can imagine the results, especially in 2020 and 2021! Seeing this video reminds me that I need to go back to that way of eating again.

      What it is: Fermented soybeans with a probiotic punch.
      Taste and Texture: Strong, nutty flavor with a sticky, gooey texture.
      Health Benefits:
      Heart Health: May help lower blood pressure and dissolve blood clots.
      Strong Bones: Rich in vitamin K2, important for bone health.
      Digestive Support: Probiotics may aid digestion and gut health.

    The number 2 and 3 resonates with me. I got the advice from my mom that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, therefore I eat full. It makes me feel energized and great enough to do. things for the rest of the morning so this habit has ingrained in me. I wanna thank my mom for this!

    When I miss Japan, it is often a food memory that triggers the feeling. I love and miss Japanese cuisine. Sharing a meal makes people like each other or as the feel closer with strong bond. Eating the same food leads to trust and cooperation because they feel closer with the feeling of intimacy among those eating together, share the experience with eating and drinking.

    I loved this video so much and just wanted to share that with you in case you read this. I've been working on adding changes to my life and somehow the Japanese way of eating really speaks to me. Funnily enough I've received my matcha, whisk and spoon on Wednesday and have made matcha latte for 3 days now. I've read about how people don't use the whisk and use an electric thingie instead because it takes too long for them. I immediately was like: wait, really? I mean the whole authentic way of making it is what got me even a bit obsessing over it, haha. It's like you said, I feel like it's this nice little routine that adds some zen, mindful moment into my morning. I bet it'll even be more so with what you said about just really listening to the sound of the whisk, so I wanted to really thank you for that!
    Sorry for the long comment haha, that happens when I'm really excited about something. Next up I'm going to try the 80% full thing, although I have issues with sensing when I need to eat or when I'm full so I'm not sure how to, yet. But adding several plates and eating slowly and mindfully will probably be a really good start. So thanks again!
    And I love the editing of your video too by the way:)
    Have a lovely day 🩷

      I’ve tried to drink matcha but the bitterness tastes awful to me. Do you think it would be ok to add honey to it. ?

    • @romif1413
      @romif1413 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@Englishroserebecca oh yes, I definitely think so! I don't know if this goes for 'pure' matcha (the non-latte kind, so just matcha powder and water, not sure how to call it.. tea?) but for matcha lattes I've seen and read several videos or articles mentioning adding a sweetener like honey or - like I do - maple syrup.
      In case you don't know, I've found that the type of matcha and thereby its taste differs majorly from brand to brand and also from what I believe is called beginners vs premium vs ceremony matcha. Some are (way) more bitter than others. I've had one before that was super bitter, whereas I find the one I have now to be amazing. But the one I had before was way cheaper and from what I've come to learn that probably means that one was of the lower quality type. Also the temperature of the water is apparently extremely important (it's supposed to be between 70-80°C, I now make mine at 70). If you add matcha to water at its boiling point, it will be way more bitter.
      Not what you asked for but I figured I'd throw in some extra info:)) hope it helps!

    First time watching your video! I surely missed a lot but will catch up🥰. I m from the highlands of madagascar island and we in our customs can relate a lot to many Asian customs and ways of living. Many similarities because we descend from Indonesians and Malays. But japanese habits are so different from the rest of Asia except korea and china. I love your healthy habits and still hardly try to adopt some to my dailies☺️. But i will succeed. thank you Mako for all the tips.
