Food Remedies
Cholerics tend to do very well on vegetarian diets. Ordinary table salt and salty foods, aged cheeses, vinegar and alcohol, high fat and fried foods, excessive red meat, highly sour foods, fermented foods, and very hot spices will bother the Choleric temperament.
To correct humor imbalances, the idea is to provide your body with the nutrients opposite your dominant humors. Let's say you have a primarily HOT/DRY constitution. You would choose COLD and WET (MOIST) nutrients to create balance and restore health and wellness.
COLD Choices: Cold foods are also considered "Cooling". Choose from mint, banana, most tropical fruits, milk and dairy, fresh cheeses, lettuce, melons, cucumber, watermelon, fish, dandelion leaves and root, bee pollen, alfalfa, plantain, beets, wild lettuce, most bitters, and any foods or nutrients that sedate the metabolism and relieve excess heat.
WET (Moist) Choices: Wet and moist foods are also considered "heavy". Choose from beef, eggplant, avocados, raspberries, cherries, watermelon, peaches, dark red and blueberries, oysters, all fat from meat and fish, various types of meat in moderation, vinegar, lemon, coconut, bee pollen, and all rich or oily foods or foods that are emollient.
COLD or WET Herb Choices: red raspberry (COLD), Chinese rhubarb (COLD), lemon peel (COLD), Oregon grape root (COLD), vervain (COLD), self heal (COLD), uva ursi (COLD), aloe vera (COLD), white willow (COLD), milk thistle (COLD), marshmallow root (COOL/MOIST), catnip (COLD/MOIST), comfrey leaf (COLD/MOIST), slippery elm (COLD/MOIST), passionflower (COOL), bladderwrack, kelp, Irish moss (COOL), black cohosh (Cool), peppermint (COOL), elderflowers (COOL), feverfew (COOL)
Some COLD foods can also be considered WET, but not all.
Neutral food and herbs choices are raspberries, elderberries, calendula flowers, flaxseed, chaste berry, carrots, parsley, oat straw, parsley, psyllium, motherwort, blackberries, and lemon balm.
