Ying Yang Foods 

Choosing the right ones for your body 

According to the theory of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) grains, fruits, vegetables, meats, nuts, in fact almost every food we eat has its own nature, which can be described as Yin or Yang, cold or warm, moist or dry. Each individual body has its own constitution, and it is only when the nature of the food fulfills the needs of the body that we can get the most benefit from the foods we eat. A healthy diet can avoid many health problems, and can help in the recovery of diseases. Our workshop provides you with the information about your body constitution according to TCM principals and gives you suggestions about the kind of diet that is most suitable for you.
