That is to say, the human body should be based on different periods of yin and yang conditions, so that the "inner movement" that is, internal organs, qi and blood, the physiological movement of the essence, and the "outer movement" that is, brain power, physical strength and physical activity in harmony, to maintain the "supply and marketing" relationship balance. "The relationship between supply and sales is balanced. Avoid the appearance of inappropriate movement and destroy the balance of the body's internal and external environment. Due to the equinox equilibrium day and night, cold and heat, people in the health care should pay attention to maintain the body's balance of yin and yang. The human body is a balanced whole, yin and yang two points together, diet, emotions, living have their own biological laws, in order to seek this "temporary equilibrium state" of the "fundamental conditions of life", to maintain the balance of yin and yang of the human body has become an important law of health!

In the spring equinox diet, should be based on their own actual situation to choose to be able to maintain a coordinated and balanced body functions of the meal. The general principle should be to avoid the diet of great heat and cold, and keep the balance of cold and heat.
