Seasonal Nutrition

Digestive Health & Nutrition and Recipes
More delicious and medicinal recipes will be added to the new Recipe section frequently. These recipes are created from a combination of Chinese Medical Nutrition and Living Foods. Chinese Medical Nutrition is called Shi Liao and is based on the nutritional value of foods as well as the thermal and energetic properties of foods. For example, while it is important to know if a food is a protein, carbohydrate or which vitamins it contains, a food may also be warming, cooling, drying, moisturising, consolidating or dispersing. It may send this energy to a particular area of the body or via particular acupuncture channels. The food may also be in season during certain times of the year, which assists your body to maintain balance in the different weather patterns. Many chronic ailments are better in some seasons and worse in others.
For example if you have a condition that is worse in the cold, wet weather but better in the warm dry weather, you can assist your body to experience this environment all year round by eating warming foods that resolve internal damp & disperse the warmth to the particular part of the body that is affected. A good example of this type of ailment is arthritis in the fingers. Cinnamon is warming and it spreads to the fingers, while also drying damp with it's aromatic quality. It is anti-inflammatory and gentle in nature. Even using cinnamon oil in a base oil for hand moisturising may assist during colder weather.
Combining nutrition with Shi Liao, the medicinal, energetic and thermal properties of foods, allows a more fine tuned ability to select the nutrients you need with specific foods that assists your health and knowledge of the timing of eating of those foods. Ensuring those foods are bio-available in terms of their energy, digestability, high nutrient value and good organic quality is where Living Foods comes into it. Most of the recipes I am posting will contain fresh, organic foods in their live state, high in enzymes so you can digest all the energy within and benefit with natural health.
For more information about the seasonal energetic nature of foods check the 5 Elemental Nutrition post. It examines the 5 elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water and their related seasons, organs, foods, flavours and mental-emotional qualities.
