Nutritionally balanced meals, prepared according to recipes based on 5 Element Diet and Nutrition are nature's pharmaceuticals. These medicinal recipes -- many of which are similar to the delicious dishes you enjoy at your favorite Chinese restaurant -- provide the chi and nutrients you need to improve and maintain your health, and are often prescribed as part of an Oriental medicine treatment plan. Imagine a prescription to treat yourself to some delicious, healthy and balanced Asian cuisine.
You're born with a certain amount of chi that you inherit from your parents; you get a constant supply of chi from the air you breathe; and you need a constant source of chi from the food you eat. When you eat food that doesn't have the proper nutritive value, your health gradually diminishes; when you eat a diet that's balanced, based on the 5 Element Theory of Oriental Medicine, your health flourishes.
Diet nutrition has long been regarded in China because beauty and image matter greatly in Chinese culture. What people saw on the outside was a reflection of how they cared for their body on the inside. If someone was sick, it indicated that their Qi, or internal energy was unbalanced, and that they were not eating well or maintaining their body well.
Diet and nutrition plays a large role in one's health and that is why Chinese medicine has taken a huge role in natural health in western countries. Many people are choosing natural remedies to their common ailments, such as colds, flu, and joint pain, over prescription or over the counter medication. Taking care of your health should be a high priority. Taking herbal supplements and vitamins and minerals will help you to achieve that balance of energy in your body known as Qi that you need in order for maximum health. However, doing other healthful things, such as eating a well balanced meal and exercising, all play a role in your health, as well.
Nutrition needs to be seen from many different viewpoints. If you wish to be healthy, then you may need to change some of your common habits that may be affecting your health in a negative way. By taking this herb, Lingzhi, you will be beginning your way to better health by helping restore your liver's natural function. The liver is the powerhouse in your body for flushing out toxins. When it is not working to its full capacity it can make you feel sluggish and sick when toxins stay in your blood stream that should not be there.
The first, involving 114 college students who were asked to read nutrition labels on cookies - they were described as either "Oreo cookies" or "Oreo cookies made with organic flour and sugar." Both had 160 calories but participants were asked to rate whether they thought the cookies had fewer calories or more calories than other brands on a scale of 1 (fewest calories) and 7 (most calories).

Not surprisingly, the cookies described as "organic" were rated as having fewer calories than conventional cookies. The "organic" cookies got a rating of 3.9; the traditional ones got an average rating of 5.17. Participants also thought the "organic" cookies could be eaten more than the non organic ones. The impact on calorie judgments was largest for those who held pro environment views, or those who valued organic methods in the first place.
