Features: The book "Five Colors of Japanese Cuisine" primarily introduces plant-based foods such as fruits and vegetables. It also discusses grains, the staple foods of daily meals, including mixed grains, emphasizing the importance of consuming more whole grains, which relates to the colors of food. For animal-based foods, it merely follows the evaluations and dietary recommendations of some experts and scholars on "red meat" and "white meat." Additionally, it introduces the evaluations and eating habits of other colored foods that "Five Colors of Japanese Cuisine" may encounter, along with related knowledge. Readers who read this information will not only find it beneficial but also feel refreshed. The book also dedicates considerable space to helping readers understand how to choose five-color foods, how to pair them, how to balance a five-color diet, and how to arrange the consumption of five-color foods based on individual needs, timing, and location. This book combines scientific rigor, knowledge, and practicality, introducing some typical foods of each color to readers without listing all colored foods in a structured manner. This is related to the scientific research on each food item individually, as the science of food colors, though ancient, is still young. This book is just a "pebble to stir the pot," and we hope that more experts and scholars will write comprehensive works on this topic. The book also includes some discussions and reports by experts and scholars from media sources, aiming to introduce various perspectives, facts, and updates to the readers.
