Thanks to the fact that the Zodiac signs are ruled by different
elements they are also constitutionally different than each other.
This is why it makes sense that they would prefer
different types
of foods. Here is a breakdown of the types of foods and diets that
best suit each sign.
Aries
Aries native are ruled by the Fire element in Western astrology,
which means that they need to eat
foods that support their adrenal
functions. To avoid migraines and burnout they need to eat foods
rich in potassium
such as tomatoes, beans (red kidney, navy, lima),
brown rice, lentils, walnuts, olives, onions, lettuce, cauliflower,
cucumber, spinach, broccoli, brussel sprouts, veal, swordfish,
flounder, figs, bananas, dried uncooked apricots and
pumpkin.
Aries natives should also make sure that they take plenty of
calcium, either in the form of kale,
citrus fruits or milk, to ward
off any dental problems and also to keep them calm.
Taurus
Taurus
natives are ruled by the Earth element in Western astrology,
which means that they need to eat foods and fluids that
support the
respiratory system. This sign also rules the thyroid, which governs
their weight so they are advised
to salt their food with sea salt
or iodized salt to support the function of that organ. Celery is an
excellent diuretic
snack for Taurus types who feel bloated.
To keep their blood sugar and thyroid in balance, Taurus types are
advised to create recipes from such healthy foods as asparagus,
beets, cauliflower, horseradish, Swiss chard, spinach,
cucumber,
onions, pumpkin, raw nuts and cranberries.
Gemini
Geminis are ruled by the Air element
in traditional Western
astrology. This means that they need to eat foods that support
their lungs and nervous system.
Geminis avoid colas and coffee and
stick to mineral waters and herbal teas so they don't become
irritable.
It is also important that Gemini natives eat foods that are rich in
potassium chloride which supports both nerve and
lung function.
Foods high in this mineral are asparagus, green beans, tomatoes,
celery, carrots, spinach, oranges,
peaches, plums, apricots, and
wild rice. Healthy foods that support the Gemini nervous system
include grapefruit,
almonds, broiled fish and shellfish, grape
juice, apples and raisins.
Cancer
Cancer natives are
ruled by the element of Water in which means
that they need to eat foods that support the digestive system as
well
as the connective tissues in the body. Being a Water sign,
their greatest temptation is to over indulge in alcohol
and they
maybe prone to ulcers, galls tones, gas and weight gain.
Crabs are prone to acidosis, which is caused
by their love of
fatty, meaty foods and junk food when they feel low. Cancer people
should stay away from spicy,
highly seasoned food. Cancers need to
eat foods that are high in calcium fluoride, such as egg yolks,
whole grain
rye, yogurt, beets, watercress, fish and oysters.

nervous system functioning
at peak levels. Foods that contain this
mineral are whole wheat and rye products, almonds, walnuts,
sunflower seeds,
figs, lemons, apples, peaches, coconut, rice,
seafood, beets, asparagus, romaine, and egg yolk. These carnivores

digestive system such as bran and flax seed. They are
also advised
to eat foods that are high in the "good Omega 3 fats" such as
avocados, eggs, canned fish
and fresh seafood as t these supply
fuel for their busy and analytical brains. They should also eat
lots of
protein in the form yogurt, brown rice, eggs, and cottage
cheese.

foods high in sodium
phosphate, which balances out the alkaline and acid ratio in the
body. Foods that are rich
