A Healthy Lifestyle, the Chinese Way

Traditional Chinese doctors believe we

need a balance of yin and yang to be

healthy. For example, are you quiet and

often tired? Maybe you have too much

yin. You should eat hot yang foods, like

beef.

Eating Dangshen and Hoangqi herbs

is also good for this. But people who

are stressed out and angry may have

too much yang. Chinese doctors belie

ve that they should eat more yin food

s like tofu. It’s easy to have a healthy

lifestyle, and it’s important to eat a b

alanced diet.
