michaela,
You ask for alot.
Though nearly 20 years ago, I read of a charismatic macrobiotic leader in Brazil, I haven't read anything lately.
I have no idea of the size of the German-Brazilian community in Brazil, so I suggest you make inquiries in the German, Portuguese, and Brazilian communities about this.
Some Portuguese mb sites:
INSTITUTO MACROBIÓTICO DE PORTUGAL

, Useful names, addresses, and telephone numbers of macrobiotic people, mb restaurants, and mb food suppliers (including food stores) from around the world including 13 for Brazil and 4 of them being restaurants in Brasilia, Rio, and Sao Paulo.
How soon are you leaving for Brazil and where is your starting point?
Have an excellent trip!
Thank you, very much.
