I share gut friendly Japanese cooking ideas, techniques, and longevity wisdom inspired by my grandparents—104 and 95 years old, still living independently.
As a flexitarian following my grandparents’ traditions, many of the meal ideas on this channel feature fish and plant-forward dishes.
Japanese cuisine is naturally balanced, rich in fermentation, and highly adaptable for both vegan and non-vegan diets. That’s what makes it perfect for creating meals everyone can enjoy together at the same table.
This channel is for people who want to learn a healthier lifestyle the Japanese way—those looking for plant-forward meal ideas, or anyone who enjoys a flexitarian approach to eating like I do.

Konbanwa, my friends!I finally tried making natto without commercial starter!
Instead of starter, I used one everyday kitchen ingredient you probably already have at home. Can you guess what it was? And more importantly... did it actually work?
My full experiment video drops tomorrow! Stay tuned 😊
From Mana chan!

I often get asked: What do my 105 and 95-year-old grandparents eat every day?
That inspired me to create this video! Since many of you live outside of Japan, I broke down their routine into 2 simple dietary formulas that you can easily follow no matter where you live.
Watch the full video here: [https://youtu.be/dVCHRIGHyW4] Enjoy!

Konbanwa, my friends!
Excited to announce that Part 1 of my new longevity series drops this Saturday! 🌿
Thank you so much to everyone who participated in the questionnaire. There’s so much to share from my 105- and 95-year-old grandparents that one video wasn't enough.
We’re kicking off Episode 1 by focusing on mindset—simple, powerful habits that anyone can build into their daily routine.

Have you ever heard of Shiokoji? It is a Japanese fermented seasoning that is popular, especially among health-conscious people. My 95-year-old grandma incorporated it into her cooking a few years ago, and since then we both love it because it is so good for your mouth and stomach! (It can also be used as a tenderizer for meat, fish, and tofu.) In my latest video, I show you how I use it in a healthy way! Enjoy!→https://youtu.be/oUQOIeF2r7Y
