Living in Japan and lose weight

Japanese diet

Typical Japanese meal mostly consist of foods rich in protein (like fish, beef, or chicken), veggies or salad, rice, and miso soup that are all generally healthy and fairly low in fat. As their diet is traditionally high in soy and fish it also plays a significant role in the reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. They consume a wide variety of vegetables, both land and sea vegetables such as seaweed, which is packed full of health-boosting minerals, and helps to reduce blood pressure. Alongside their diet, the Japanese are big fans of green tea that is most valued for its high antioxidant compounds known as catechins which have been linked to fighting cancer, viruses and heart disease.
