Disharmonies of diet as a factor in ill health

In the Chinese system of health and medicine, the Stomach receives the food and the Spleen is responsible for transforming it into Qi and Blood. These two Organs are, therefore, most affected by diet. Food types have Yin and Yang characteristics. Too much of any sort of food can produce disharmony, as can too much food or improperly cleaned food.
