When it comes to health care, contemporary people can often casually say a few health care tips, such as soaking feet with mugwort leaves, rubbing hands and rubbing hearts, and drying the back. In fact, these health care skills we have mastered are only palliative, not permanent. The highest realm of Taoist doctors is health preservation, and the highest realm of health preservation is nourishing the heart. Supplemented by the way of homology of medicine and food, treat both the symptoms and root causes. Although the physical condition of human beings will change and the living environment is constantly changing, some health preserving methods are unchangeable truths. So today we are going to have a dish of "Taoist health preservation".

(Master Lei Shang, 2 1 generation)

Baogan decoction inherits the health preserving methods of Taoist doctors.

In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor asked about the origin of Guangdao. Today, Huangdi Neijing has been spread all over the world. Taoist doctor was born in Fuxi's theory of Huang Lao, which is the perfect combination of Taoist theory and Chinese medicine theory. Its medical system is more complete, its inheritance is more orthodox and its curative effect is better! On the Way of Health Preservation written by Qiu Chuji, the founder of Longmen Sect, not only represents the thought of traditional Chinese medicine, but also contains the connotation of Taoist culture, which can be described as Taoist medical law.

Qiu Chuji has specially established the Baogan Hall, which inherits the health preserving methods of Longmen Taoist doctors, and has become a splendid treasure in the treasure house of China traditional culture passed down from generation to generation by Baogan Hall and its descendants. For thousands of years, it has played an important role in strengthening national physique, enhancing moral quality, purifying people's minds and promoting social progress and development.

Medicine and food are homologous, nourishing and nourishing the heart.

Longmen Sect is the most important and prosperous branch of Quanzhen religion, which inherits Quanzhen teaching method. Since its establishment, the school has advocated health preservation, mainly through the method of homology of medicine and food to preserve health, enhance physical fitness, prevent diseases and achieve the purpose of prolonging life. Being widely praised and recognized by ancient and modern wise men is one of the few wonderful methods. Soup, which was founded by soup, has the same origin of medicine and food, and was carried forward by the twenty-second generation. The definition of the name of Baogantang also embodies the essence of Taoist culture. Treasure, treasure, between heaven and earth. Dry, sunny, tangible and intangible. Gan Bao is to use the things in heaven and earth to resist the gas from all directions, so as to achieve the realm of harmony between man and nature.

(Twenty-second generation disciple Qiu Feng)

Taoist diet culture based on dietotherapy has always occupied a special position in China traditional culture. People often say that "medicine is better than food", but there is still great wisdom behind this sentence. In other words, it is usually best to keep healthy through foods with homology of medicine and food, because foods with homology of medicine and food are both safe and effective. The theory of the homology of medicine and food for health preservation of Baogan Decoction is based on the comparison between man and nature. In the view of Taoist doctors, heaven and earth give birth to people, and people are endowed with aura of heaven and earth, so it is the most expensive in the world. Since man is the essence of heaven and earth, it is natural to nourish life by using the most essential minerals, plants and even animals between heaven and earth. So the concept of "what to eat, what to make up" was formed.

In the development of more than 800 years, Baogan Decoction has not formed a complete set of stereotyped teaching meals, but it pursues a quiet mind, comprehends the principles of nature, harmonizes Yin and Yang and the five elements, advocates the homology of medicine and food, and keeps health by eating, which has had a far-reaching impact on the development of Taoist medicine in China and food culture in China. I hope this kind of health care can be gradually integrated into more people's lives and benefit more people.
