Eating According to Body Type

What's this Body Type Thing all About?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), body types are defined by the Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element corresponds to specific physical characteristics, emotional traits, and health tendencies. For example, the Earth body type is known for its sturdy build and nurturing nature but may struggle with digestive issues and weight gain. By understanding these elements, TCM provides personalized and holistic treatments that promote balance and overall well-being.
