What are the advantages and disadvantages of medication? The advantage of drug therapy is that it can cure diseases quickly, but the disadvantage is that it is too targeted, but it does not take into account the regulation of various functions of the body. Ordinary people generally do not take drugs to avoid reducing the body's natural resistance. Dietotherapy, also known as food therapy, is a method to use food to affect all aspects of the body's functions, so as to obtain health or prevent diseases. It is generally believed that food is an edible substance that provides various nutrients for human growth and healthy survival. In other words, the most important function of food is nutrition. In fact, Chinese medicine has long recognized that food can not only nourish, but also cure diseases. For example, Zhang Xichun, a modern physician, once pointed out in The Enthusiasm of Western Medicine that food "can cure diseases and satisfy hunger; It can not only satisfy hunger, but also be palatable and treat symptoms. The disease is gradually recovering, that is, it is not symptomatic and there is no other disease. " It can be seen that food itself has the functions of "nourishing" and "treating diseases". Chinese medicine pays more attention to the characteristics of food in "nourishing" and "treating".
Dietotherapy is a traditional habit of China people, and it can achieve the purpose of conditioning and strengthening the body through diet. Dietotherapy culture has a long history, and dietotherapy is a long-term health preservation behavior. In the past, people used to regulate their bodies through dietotherapy, but now people use dietotherapy to lose weight, protect skin and protect hair. Dietotherapy is a way to keep healthy.
