On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics.

Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.
