| | Body Types, Body Typing, and Herbal Medicine |
 | | Body types and body typing: glandular body types, adrenal types, somatotypes, and Eastern body types: their scientific basis, relevance for holistic medicine, and their possible relationship to perception, depressive realism, and constitutional diseases such as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and elevated cortisol levels. |
 | | While body typing became more fragmented and holistic forms of body typing ceased to be recognised, eventually the psychological types of Jung were developed (13,14). |
 | | Knowledge of body typing therefore, by enabling the holistic practitioner to readily identify and understand deviations from a normal or balanced constitution, permits a more cause based treatment strategy to be adopted by intervening at the most fundamental constitutional level of the disease process. |
