From the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine, what are the benefits of diet regimen?
The so-called "the way to keep healthy is not before eating", and the sayings of "medicine and food are homologous" and "medicine is not as good as food" all emphasize that eating is more useful to food than elixir.

Food not only supplies physical energy, but also meets spiritual needs. Modern people have countless civilized diseases, whether physical or psychological, which are ultimately related to food problems. Diet is indeed the most important part of health care. A reasonable diet can make people strong and live longer. Improper diet is one of the important causes of disease and premature aging.

Diet is the main source of human nutrition intake and an important guarantee of human health and energy. Reasonable arrangement of diet and adequate intake of dietary nutrients can ensure adequate nutrition supply for human body, make human body full of qi and blood, and improve the functions of internal organs. However, if the human body is full of qi and blood, the functions of the internal organs are sound, and the metabolism is active, it can make people have vigorous vitality, enhance their ability to cope with changes in nature, and enhance their ability to resist external pathogenic factors.

At the same time, diet can also regulate the balance of yin and yang. According to the ups and downs of yin and yang and the taste characteristics of food, we can arrange a suitable diet plan, either nourishing essence or filling shape, which can adjust the balance of yin and yang in the human body. The balance of yin and yang can not only ensure health, but also prevent diseases. In addition, some foods with specific functions can be directly used for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases.

Therefore, a reasonable diet is not only an important source of nutrition for physical fitness, but also an important measure to prevent diseases.
