Chinese medicine health = eating Chinese medicine?
The means and methods of TCM health preservation are rich and colorful, such as mental health preservation, daily health preservation, acupuncture and massage, etc. The purpose of health preservation is not to cure diseases but to prevent diseases, so it is wrong for Chinese medicine practitioners to say that only taking Chinese medicine can achieve the purpose of health preservation. Besides Chinese herbal medicines, there are acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, massage, medicated bath, scraping and dietotherapy, all of which have good curative effects.
Health = the elderly?
Of course not! In fact, we can think that TCM health preservation is a physical maintenance project. The sooner you start health care, the better your body structure and performance will be. From this point of view, the effect of health care for young people is often much more remarkable than that for the elderly.
Western medicine nutrition = Chinese medicine diet?
Western medicine nutrition is to control diet through the pH value of the final metabolites in the body after food is ingested into the human body, and finally achieve the goal of balancing physique. Chinese dietotherapy is to prevent and treat diseases by using foods with the same origin of medicine and food, to regulate the human body according to the qi of food, to treat people as adults, to pay attention to the seasons, to eat seasonal foods, to regulate the body with food, and to achieve the purpose of balancing yin and yang. The two cannot be equated.
