Specialists are trained to work with individuals who wish to better their health and lifestyle by changing their diet to match their body constitution. Dieticians and alternative health professionals are able to teach individuals about their body constitution and how they can change their diet to better their overall well being and health.
What is Body Constitution
Body constitution is basically your body type. By knowing what your body constitution is, you can adjust your diet to understand which foods are complementary to you and which foods to avoid. There are five classes of body constitution: hot, warm, neutral, cool and cold. A neutral body constitution is centered between the Yin and the Yang. Warm and hot body constitutions are yang types; and cool and cold belong to the Yin category.
A person's body constitution can be summed up by the following: If you are always hot, have warm hands and feet, always full of energy, underweight by 20 pounds or more, and have a high sex drive then you have a "hot" body constitution. If you are someone who likes summer more than winter, aren't normally tired, fairly active, and you enjoy sex more than eating then you have a warm body constitution.
If you are always cold, have cold hands and feet, weigh more than 20 pounds over your ideal weight, are normally tired, laid back, patient and have a low sex drive then you have a cold body constitution. If you like winter over summer, are a little overweight, are fairly lazy and relaxed, enjoy food more than sex then you have a cool body constitution.
When you have a combination of all of the above, you have a neutral body constitution. Generally, knowing your body constitution allows you to choose foods that maintain harmony. For example, an individual who has a yang body constitution should eat more yin foods and reversed if the opposite is true. By following your unique body constitution, you should no longer suffer from food
allergies and dietary imbalances.
