What if there were a land where people lived longer than
anywhere else on earth, the obesity rate was the lowest in the
developed world, and women in their forties still looked like they
were in their twenties? Wouldn’t you want to know their
extraordinary secret?
Japanese-born Naomi Moriyama reveals the secret to her own
high-energy, successful lifestyle-and the key to the enduring
health and beauty of Japanese women-in this exciting new book. The
Japanese have the pleasure of eating one of the most delicious,
nutritious, and naturally satisfying cuisines in the world without
denial, without guilt…and, yes, without getting fat or looking
old.

As a young girl living in Tokyo, Naomi Moriyama grew up in the
food utopia of the world, where fresh, simple, wholesome fare is
prized as one of the greatest joys of life. She also spent much
time basking in that other great center of Japanese food culture:
her mother Chizuko’s Tokyo kitchen. Now she brings the traditional
secrets of her mother’s kitchen to you in a book that embodies the
perfect marriage of nature and culinary wisdom-Japanese home-style
cooking.

If you think you’ve eaten Japanese food, you haven’t tasted
anything yet. Japanese home-style cooking isn’t just about sushi
and raw fish but good, old-fashioned everyday-Japanese-mom’s
cooking that’s stood the test of time-and waistlines-for decades.
Reflected in this unique way of cooking are the age-old traditional
values of family and the abiding Japanese love of simplicity,
nature, and good health. It’s the kind of food that millions of
Japanese women like Naomi eat every day to stay healthy, slim, and
youthful while pursuing an energetic, successful, on-the-go
lifestyle. Even better, it’s fast, it’s easy, and you can start
with something as simple as introducing brown rice to your diet.
You’ll begin feeling the benefits that keep Japanese women among
the youngest-looking in the world after your very next meal!

If you’re tired of counting calories, counting carbs, and
counting on being disappointed with diets that don’t work and don’t
satisfy, it’s time to discover one of the best-kept and most
delicious secrets for a healthier, slimmer, and long-living
lifestyle. It’s time to discover the Japanese fountain of
youth….

Naomi Moriyama was born in Tokyo. As a U.S.-Japan marketing
consultant, she works with some of the world’s leading fashion,
luxury, and consumer brands. She lives in New York City with her
husband and coauthor, William Doyle, who has written or cowritten
five books.

It’s well known that Japanese women have the lowest obesity rate in
the industrialized world (3%) and the highest life expectancy (85
years), and that their cuisine is based on simplicity. Tokyo native
Moriyama puts a human face on this phenomenon, that of her mother,
Chizuko, in this well-organized, persuasive introduction to a
non-Western everyday cooking plan. Just as Moriyama reconstructed
Chizuko’s cooking practices for herself and her coauthor husband,
Doyle (Inside the Oval Office), she shows readers the elements of
Chizuko’s 6’×12′ Tokyo kitchen. She details its pantry ingredients,
including bonito (fish) flakes and daikon (radish) and tools such
as a rice cooker and wok. Most recipes are based on at least one of
the “seven pillars”–fish, vegetables, rice, soy, noodles, tea,
fruit–and are familiar and easy to make (Shrimp and Vegetable
Tempura, Teriyaki Fish, etc.). Cooking tips abound, but what adds a
French Women Don’t Get Fat angle is the useful eating advice, such
as “Hara hachi bunme,” or “Eat until you are 80 percent full.” It’s
a call for moderation that occurs throughout other cultures, and if
it’s the Japanese version that speaks to readers, good for
Moriyama. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division
