Press from all over the world certainly like Naomi
Moriyama’s The Japan Diet, and here’s what they have to say about
it.
“Excellent! A diet that’s anti-ageing, slimming and fills you up
– where do we sign up?” Grazia
“A delicious way to stay healthy” The Washington Post
“If you need inspiration to change your diet, spending a couple
of hours with Naomi Moriyama should do the trick. She has a slight
(but not too skinny) frame, perfect skin, lots of energy and
gleaming hair. She looks 20 years younger than her real age of 45…
In short, Japanese people, especially women, are the healthiest in
the world.” Daily Telegraph
“Incredibly informative and easy to read, full of handy hints…the
perfect tool to help you incorporate aspects of the Tokyo kitchen
into your diet and lifestyle, for a slimmer, more energetic and
youthful you.” Health and Fitness Magazine
“The key to Naomi’s diet success is the Japanese Country Power
Breakfast, a miso soup chock-full of tofu, vegetables and a whole
egg. And there’s truth in her boast: Japanese women have the world’s
lowest obesity rate (2.9 per cent to France's 11 per cent) and
highest life expectancy (85 years).” GQ
“The book has plenty of tempting recipes to try and is written in
a homely, anecdotal manner that makes it almost more like a novel
than an instruction guide.” Daily Star
“The secret is eating plentifully but healthily. Moriyama dishes
up tasty recipes, along with portions of memoir that capture her
childhood in Tokyo.” You Magazine
“We love that Moriyama makes cooking and eating joyful. Here’s to
miso soup, rice balls and the perfect bowl of soba noodles in small,
delicate portions.” The Toronto Star
“With easy and delicious recipes for such delights as breakfast
miso soup, rice balls and Japanese omelettes, this book is a
winner.” Sunday Herald (Australia)
“Moriyama’s book is a compelling wake-up call… Moriyama knows
Westerners think cooking Japanese food is a daunting prospect, but
her writing and her recipes constantly reassure us that this is not
the case… Moriyama puts a human face on facts, alternating between
personal stories, interesting snippets of Japanese history and the
latest research on food and health from a plethora of experts.”
Sunday Telegraph (Australia)
