Earth Element (Deficient)

Earth Element (Deficient)

Personality: Calm and stable demeanor, peace-loving, detail-oriented, selfless, sincere, and seeks perfection. Tends to be meticulous, may be blunt or critical, often complains, and speaks frankly.
Precautions: *Utthiyanga* (Newly consumed food) refers to the food recently eaten. Illnesses often result from eating incompatible or unclean food, or food that aggravates one’s element — known as “eating incorrectly.”
Recommendations:

  1. Choose foods with astringent, sweet, rich, and salty flavors.
  2. Include root vegetables such as taro, yam, carrot, fingerroot, onion, garlic, and beans in your diet.
  3. Avoid unfamiliar foods and those that have been left out for a long time.
  4. Carry herbal aromatic medicine or inhalants with you.
  5. Exercise regularly, but not too intensely.
