HEalTH For Each ZOdiAC Sign

Aries
Potential health problems for Aries include eyestrain, insomnia and frequent headaches.  This is linked to thefact that Aries often suppress their feelings - you need to learn to let off steam now and again if you are tomaintain good physical and psychological health.  Headaches should be treated naturally rather than withmedication.  Try getting some fresh air, or alternatively, drinking herbal infusions of lime flower orvalerian can be effective.  Romanies have traditionally recommended juniper berries for many Ariesafflictions: an infusion of juniper berries, boiling water and honey can be used to treat nervous strain and adilution of juniper oil massaged into the temples can relieve migraines.

Taurus
A Taurus is never as happy as when they are at the dinner table, luxurious food is your first love and youhave a strong tendency to overindulge.  As a result, many Taurus suffer from acid indigestion and weightproblems.  Moderation should be the key word, you must learn to eat little and often and most importantly, tolisten to your stomach - when it says that it's full it means that it's full! Typical Taurus are deficient insodium sulphate, which can lead to joint stiffness, rheumatism and arthritis.  They should steer away fromfat-laden foods and opt for more fruits such as strawberries and pomegranates to combat this deficiency.  Apples are a wonder fruit for Taurus, helping to ward off rheumatism, gout and even bladder problems.  The good news is that for an earth sign such as Taurus, some fat is needed in the diet so should not be cut outaltogether.

Gemini
Geminis are renowned for having hectic and exciting lifestyles, and you often seem to thrive on stress and like juggling many things at a time.  An active lifestyle such as this can deplete energy levels drastically so energy drinks are ideal for Geminis.  Try drinking the juice of a parsnip and half a cucumber and carrot before embarking on a busy day to boost your energy levels. Geminis, you must also learn to listen to your body when it tells you it needs a rest - don't overdo the activity!

Cancer
Cancers are crabby creatures! They can be moody and emotional and this is often reflected in the state of their health, for example, when feeling stressed, they may well be affected in the stomach area. A lack of calcium fluoride means that Cancers suffer from nerve and muscle problems. They can ward off these problems by stocking up on plenty of milk, watercress and oily fish like sardines.As for alcohol, water signs are generally not great drinkers - they feel drunk very quickly, even if they have not consumed much. It may be
dull, but moderation is the key word.

Leo
Leos love to party any time of the night or day, and live life to the full. Massages can help with back pain and they should have a good firm bed for their posture. Leos also suffer from weak circulation and need to be cajoled into taking exercise, walking is the best method and drinking a tea made from valerian roots can stimulate circulation. In fact, they are more likely to get hooked on caffeine than alcohol, as Leos tend to be quite partial to coca-cola and coffee.

Virgo
Virgos are born worriers and hypochondriacs.Virgo rules the intestines and it is normally work that affects their health, causing stomach and bowel problems. This is because they worry and get stressed a lot and even if they do not work, there is always some drama in their personal life causing them anxiety. Having said that, Virgos are usually very healthy - though they need to keep the digestive and nervous system in good order. Juicing an apple with some strawberries, blackberries, raspberries and some lemon, can make a great stress buster for Virgos.

Libra
An unhappy Libra is one without balance and harmony in their lives. They need to work, rest and play if they are to function well. Libras are great socialisers and are often the last to leave a party. They love beautiful and rich foods and have a wickedly sweet tooth. Libra governs the kidneys, skin and lumbar regions. In particular, Libras should take care of their kidneys by going easy on the booze at those late night parties they love to frequent. They handle beer better than spirits, though should beware of the effect this can have on their waistline.

Scorpio
Food, sex and money are what the Scorpio loves best in life.Scorpios lack calcium sulphate, which is needed to keep the lungs healthy and ulcers at bay. Many foods are full of calcium sulphate, including cabbage, kale, milk and onions. Scorpios do not thrive on stress, in fact it affects them badly as they are an overemotional sign. Wherever possible, they should try to avoid stressful situations and when they do feel anxious, should try relaxation techniques. A bath with aromatherapy oils is great for both body and soul and will set you up for a good night's sleep.

Sagittarius
Lust for life and optimism characterize Sagittarius  They are extremely versatile and move quickly from one idea to the next, constantly needing to grow and expand. When it comes to colds, Sagittarius have a particularly weak resistance and only need to spend a short while in smoky, crowded rooms before catching a nasty bug. More fresh air is the best preventative measure and they must not forget to do as their mum says and wrap up warm come wintertime. They could also try to incorporate more onions, barley and cherries into their diet.

Capricorn
With Saturn as their ruling planet, Capricorns are self-controlled and self-disciplined and this is reflected in their health.Capricorns need to watch their calcium levels as their joints and bones are particularly weak. Desk jobs add to the problem of stiff joints, Capricorns need to keep moving!Knees are particularly weak and can be strengthened by adding more parsley into your food - sprinkle it over meat and vegetables for a quick and easy vitamin boost. Like Sagittarius  Capricorns are vulnerable to chills.

Aquarius
Aquarius governs the circulation and the ankles, meaning that people born under this sign are prone to ankle sprain and other leg problems. Aquarius often feel cold even when the weather is warm because of their poor circulation and the fact that they love wearing skimpy clothing, even in the thick of winter. A tea made from angelica leaves will not only stimulate circulation, but also blitz a stinking cold. Exercises like swimming and water aerobics are best for building up leg muscles and improving the circulation.

Pisces
Pisces believe in suffering for their beauty and strangely, it is usually the feet that suffer.Moderation is not in your vocabulary! Pisces are dreadful dieters; they are prone to snacking and have varied eating patterns which result in digestive problems. They also tend to turn to food to make their problems go away, instead of when they are actually hungry. Pisces are lacking in phosphate of iron, which is needed for red blood and good circulation. This can be found in most leafy green vegetables, raisins, dates, figs and nuts. When it comes to alcohol, Pisces are extremely weak.
