The ancient laws of balance, also called "yin-yang",
govern food and eating as well. "Yang" foods heat up
and stress the body; meat, eggs, and salt belong to this category.
"Yin" foods are known to cool down and relax the body.
Fruits, vegetables, spices, coffee, and tea (mostly grown in tropical
climates) are usually considered yin.
Upon discovering the dangers and environmental effects of eating
animal products, many people cut them out entirely without considering
the importance of maintaining yin-yang balance.
Enter whole grains the only truly neutral foods. Natural salt,
seaweeds, and fermented foods (miso, pickles, etc.) provide abundant
minerals so the modern vegetarian can keep their body yin-yang
in perfect balance. Enjoy the benefits of inner peace, abundant
energy, spiritual power, physical fitness, and longevity through
a transition to a whole grain-based vegetarian diet.
