Rskoso
R's Koso Prebiotic Drink
Published: January 23, 2026
Video Description
At 50, gut health and metabolism matter more than ever. In this video I share my midlife metabolism reset and what’s helped my digestion and energy, including a traditional Japanese fermented enzyme drink. Over the past year I changed how I eat in a way that’s realistic for midlife — not a diet, not a challenge, and not extreme. Just practical changes that actually helped.
🍾 R’s Koso is something I’ve been using for gut health and energy. Details and link here, and CHANI15 gives 15% off.: https://www.dpbolvw.net/click-101535831-14494789
In this video I share:
• what I started eating at 50
• how Japan influenced my habits
• the small systems that made healthy eating easier
• why I switched to more raw and colorful foods
• the Japanese “superfoods” I added (matcha, kombu, Koso)
• how containers, portions and rituals changed my routine
• why I gave up alcohol and late-night snacking
• and how I feel one year later
These changes helped my energy, digestion, focus and midlife health without tracking calories or dieting. If you’re in your 40s, 50s or 60s and trying to improve how you eat, I hope this gives you ideas that are actually doable.

If you are new to the channel, my name is Chani and I am a middle aged Australian who was stuck in a rut and moved to Japan to live. I bought an Akiya or empty house and started renovating. I'd love it if you subscribed and joined the community. I look forward to seeing you in the next video 😀
