Yes! Unfortunately not all Chinese medicinists agree on the classification of foods, so there are always some differences.

For booby project eat yang food. It is yang which good for growth as it's warm type food and not eat yin which is cold property. Yin food is not booby friendly food but no need to avoid it completely.
