Monks used to manage their diet by knowing accumulation, activation and pacification of elements and six seasons. They live long with clear minds free from senility, opaqueness, which directly related to their proper diet and intellectual exercises. Aging is not obsolescence but a normal phenomenon of healthy body. In theory of the traditional medicine, biological age of may be related to the percentage of wind, bile and phlegm.
