Who put forward the theory of preventing diseases? What is this?
Prevention of disease is a theory put forward in Huangdi Neijing.

"Governance" is governance management. "Preventing diseases" refers to taking corresponding measures to prevent the occurrence and development of diseases. Its main idea in traditional Chinese medicine is: prevention before illness and prevention after illness. This is the most classic judgment on disease prevention, and clearly puts forward the ideological core of "prevention before illness" in health prevention.

The word "preventing disease" was first seen in Huangdi Neijing in Qin and Han Dynasties: "The sage who failed to cure the disease failed to cure the disease, but treated the disorder, which is also called it. Husband's illness became medicine, and chaos became a cure. It's not too late to cross a well and fight for a cone! "

It means that a clever doctor should not only know the skills of treating diseases, but also be familiar with the methods of treating diseases before they occur, just as governing a country should not only treat established turmoil, but also strengthen governance before they occur. If you take medicine after illness, it's like digging a well to get water when you are thirsty and making weapons when you fight. Is it too late?

The significance of "preventing diseases"

1, and gradually form the consciousness and concept of health preservation.

Whether it's preserving health before illness, preventing diseases first or treating diseases if you want to prevent slow progress, or treating diseases early, preventing the spread of diseases, adjusting after illness and preventing recurrence. Its core is disease-free early prevention and early treatment. Take precautions before they happen, emphasize health, prevent diseases, and gradually form the consciousness and concept of maintaining health.

2, urge to establish a correct concept of health.

With the development of society, the improvement of living standards and the development of medicine, people's understanding of health has gradually deepened. At present, "disease medicine" is gradually changing to "health medicine", the object of medical attention will gradually expand from "patient" to "patient", the strategy of treating diseases will change from "seeking medical treatment due to illness" to "prevention first", and the starting point of medical intervention will gradually move forward.

Environmental pollution, fast-paced life and bad living habits make modern diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, malignant tumors, respiratory diseases and metabolic disorders the biggest killers of health, but there is no specific medicine for such diseases at present.

Self-care-centered regimen tells us that preventing diseases before they happen and treating them at the beginning are the essence of the theory of preventing diseases before they happen. It can be said that "preventing diseases" plays a leading role in improving the health quality of the whole people.

3. Reduce medical expenses and save medical resources.

The significance of national health to society lies not only in providing a foundation for development and solving health problems, but also in promoting economic growth. For a single patient, more social value can be created by improving the health level and increasing the time limit and quantity of personal contribution to society. It can also save a lot of treatment costs and medical resources for the country.
