WEEKLY NEWS
Healing Cuisine
Can food that is good for you also be exciting and tasty? Can exciting tasty food also be good for you?
Of course it can.
 Anyone who doesn't think so is really missing the entire point of our human interconnection with nature, our planet, and the entire universe.
We are what we eat. It is a simple as that. Really.
Wholly Macro often wonders why people put so much time and energy into denying the obvious.
Unhealthy food leads to illness and misery.
Healthy food leads to health, happiness, and freedom. |
|
There really is no way to get around this, try as you might.
In the end, most people, including the mainstream, are coming to realize that eating healthy food does make a difference.
Here at Wholly Macro we have always maintained that there are several components to good cooking. But two of the most important components are:
1. To make food that has sensory appeal. That is, it must look beautiful, be creative and varied in texture, flavor, and color, and taste delicious.
2. It must be good for you.

There is the healing aspect of cooking and there is the culinary aspect of cooking. The melding of the two creates Healing Cuisine.
Healing cuisine is food with a purpose.
Sure, you can just eat, with no thought whatsoever in mind as to what you are eating or why. This is what most people in America do. Or, you can eat food that is actually healing to your body. Many indigenous cultures do this. They either purely intuitively eat fresh and healthy local cuisine, or they do it because of the wisdom they have received from their elders that has been passed down throughout the generations. |
|
If you are going to eat, you might as well eat food that promotes health and wellness rather than illness and disease.
Some foods that are healing are:
 Fermented foods, which alkalize the body and promote a healthy immune system via their natural probiotic content.
Natural phytonutrient rich plant based foods such as broccoli, mushrooms, leafy greens, green and orange colored vegetables, and fresh ginger, which provide the ideal nutrients for a healthy immune system.
Certain foods are known to inhibit cancer cell growth by preventing new blood vessels from forming, blood vessels whose sole purpose is to supply cancerous tumors with their own blood supply. This is an exciting discovery called anti-angiogenesis.
An example of some anti-angiogenesis foods include: kale, bok choy, soy beans, shiitake mushrooms, pumpkin seeds, kabocha squash, whole grains, beans, and parsley.
Foods that have been linked to such illnesses as cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease include: grilled meat, eggs, dairy, processed sugar, burnt foods, fried foods, excessive alcohol intake, hydrogenated oils and trans fats, excessive processed salt, pesticides, artificial food coloring, and chemically laden foods to name just a few!
Our goal here at Wholly Macro is to fill each weekly menu with as much healing cuisine as possible while at the same time maintaining a high sense of culinary integrity.
As we glance over this week's Wholly Macro Delivery Menu we are just amazed at how much healing cuisine (from the above mentioned foods and beyond) it contains.

The dessert this week, Azuki Bean Fudge, is admittedly an unusual one! But, it is very delicious, and super healthy too.
Did you know that in Asian cuisine azuki beans are typically cooked into a thick paste and then sweetened? This bean paste is then used to make ice cream and many other desserts.
Yum yum!
Beans are natural, earthy, and unadulterated thank goodness. They support the stomach, spleen, kidneys, and heart. They counteract damp conditions within the body, reduce blood cholesterol, lower blood pressure, regulate colon function, prevent constipation, and stabilize blood sugar levels.
They are an excellent source of minerals such as calcium, potassium, iron, and zinc, and contain several B vitamins as well. |
|
In addition, as if that is not enough, beans contain two important phytochemical nutrients: diosgenin and isoflavones. Both have been linked to cancer prevention.
Azuki beans in particular strengthen the kidneys and adrenals.
And in Japan, azuki beans are served on auspicious occasions because the color red denotes good fortune!
We increase our ability to be healthy simply by believing that we can be. But we must also take constructive action to create that healing.
The most direct and constructive way to create healing is to ingest natural healing cuisine in our diet every meal, every day.
Thanks so much to each and every one of you as always.
May health, happiness, and prosperity become your unavoidable natural state and your ongoing daily experience.

DELIVERY MENU / ORDER FORM |
MILLET AND CHICKPEA SWEET VEGETABLE MISO SOUP
|
SMALL___ LARGE___ |
Millet is an alkalizing grain that is good for the pancreas. Chickpeas, while especially good for balancing the heart, also provide a creamy smooth pancreas healthy base for this soup. They are cooked together with mineral rich kombu sea vegetable, and the sweet and pancreas relaxing vegetables: kabocha squash, yellow onion, carrot, and parsnip, along with good for the pancreas wakame sea vegetable, shiitake mushrooms, digestion promoting sweet yellow miso, and a garnish of bright green scallions, and iron rich deep purple dulse sea vegetable. Yum!
|
GET YOUR OMEGA'S BROWN RICE AND MILLET PILAF

|
TOFU AND VEGETABLE FRITTATA
|

BRUSSEL SPROUTS AND RAPPINI WITH SHIITAKE KUDZU GLAZE
|
SMALL___ LARGE___ |
Juicy, bursting with flavor and nutrition rich green brussel sprouts, and wild, bitter green, good for the heart and liver rappini, are highlighted with bright orange beta carotene rich julienne carrots, and powerful and strengthening rutabaga root vegetable, then draped in a healthful glaze of cleansing and relaxing blood cholesterol lowering shiitake mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, circulation stimulating ginger root, naturally sweet, stomach and pancreas supporting yellow onions, intestinal strengthening kudzu , and shoyu soy sauce. |
|
AZUKI BEAN FUDGE |
SMALL___ LARGE___ |
This is such an incredible dessert! You get all of the mineral rich kidney strengthening qualities of deep maroon colored azuki beans that have been tenderized and even further mineralized by the addition of kombu sea vegetable, then cooked with all natural, low on the glycemic index brown rice syrup sweetener, before being richly spiked with pure organic carob powder, roasted chicory, barley, and rye grain coffee powder, and subtle overtures of sultry vanilla, all fabulously topped with roasted chopped walnuts. Asian people often use azuki beans in desserts. It is often on menu at Asian restaurants as azuki bean ice cream and is especially auspicious at the New Year!

**Wholly Macro makes every attempt to maintain a totally vegan and allergen free kitchen cooking environment. We make every effort to avoid any type of cross contamination during food preparation. Most foods used in the Wholly Macro kitchen are not packaged, but instead are bought in the produce section or in bulk. But as you know, cross contamination is always a possibility, especially with bulk items. And in the few packaged foods that we do use, such as nut butters for example, it is common to find warnings on the manufacturer label stating that the item was processed in a plant that handles tree nuts, soy, wheat, dairy, gluten, shellfish, and so on.
Wholly Macro cannot be responsible for trace amounts of common food allergens that come from outside (packaged or bulk items), and therefore end up occurring within our prepared foods. Please use your own discretion in determining if our food is appropriate for your consumption, especially if you have severe food allergies.
We are always available to clarify any of the ingredients that we use, and assist you in your weekly selections, but we cannot keep track of your food allergies, sensitivities, likes, dislikes or preferences.
Please call or email prior to ordering if you need further information or clarification.

Here's some feedback from a consultation client..... " three years ago I discovered that I had breast cancer. I had heard of Macrobiotics years ago. I didn't understand the concept but immediately I knew that that would be the route that I would pursue. But where to go and who to see was the question. Thank God for reading the macrobiotic newsletter. For in the newsletter there was an article about Gayle Stolove. I just felt her strength and passion burn through the page that I was reading. I immediately made an appointment to see her and although I was still so frightened, I felt so comfortable talking with Gayle. Gayle guided me through the whole process. I thought that the macrobiotic way of life would be boring and just eating rice. Well, I love the foods that I eat and I just feel good about it all. You see, after the surgery, you are sort of left on your own.You have to make your own decisions, etc. Everyone gives you different advice as what to eat, what to do, etc. Doctors don't understand what the patient is going through nor do they understand what kind of diet they should follow. I adopted Gayle as my guardian angel. You can't find that with any nutritionist or doctor. I love receiving her weekly e-mailed newsletters. They are so full of wonderful knowledge and beautiful healthy recipes. Gayle is a remarkable human being. She truly cares for her clients and gives them her all, one hundred percent of the time. Gayle has been there and therefore she is so compassionate and dedicates her life to helping people like me....." a cancer survivor |
