What industry does healthy food belong to?

Health food belongs to the health care industry. Different health care products have different five-element attributes, which depend on the raw materials, medicinal properties and forms of health care products. But general health care products belong to Shui Mu, such as melatonin. Because it is liquid, its main function is to replenish the brain, so it should be water. Iron maple bucket, because it is mainly made of traditional Chinese medicine and is a solid tablet, should be classified as Wuxing wood.

If we want to classify the health care industry into five elements as a whole, then health care (functional) food is a kind of food, which has the characteristics of general food, can regulate human function, and is suitable for specific people to eat, but not for the purpose of treating diseases. Health food can not be directly used to treat diseases, but is a human mechanism regulator and nutritional supplement. It is an auxiliary product for maintaining the body and has the function of making the body healthy.
