 Quiz there. "Actually, we also eat seeds many times a day. What kind of seeds are they?"
 That's right, "Rice and brown rice are seeds. Flour is seeds. Spaghetti is seeds. Udon is seeds. Beer is seeds. Edamame are seeds. Soybeans and adzuki beans are seeds. , they eat the seeds, which are very nutritious because they sustain life,” says Mr. Okazaki.

 The correct answer is "Yojo-kun", but "I really want to include this book", so I was introduced to "Kamikata Kenkoho" edited and published by Seishoku Kyokai as a "wonderful book".

 In the Genroku era, the word “health” did not yet exist. “Yojo-kun” is a modern way of saying “Health-kun”.
