The Taurus part of the body is the throat - covering the throat, tonsils, palate and vocal chords. When under stress, it is these areas of the body that Taurus people can feel ill at ease. This can be anything from a crick in the neck to a sore throat. Venus ruled Taurus has been known to result in a sweet tooth. Given their tendency to be sluggish, overly rich or sweet foods can leave Taurus born people with weight problems. Maintaining a balanced diet could be deemed essential for this group of people.

• Fresh fruit - especially cranberries
• Celery, cucumber, green salads, kidney beans, spinach, swiss chard, onions, pumpkins and wheat germ
