Features: Health preservation is both a science and a culture. Traditional Chinese health preservation culture has a long history, with many insightful discussions on longevity by renowned experts throughout the ages. However, these insights are scattered across vast ancient texts and historical records, making it difficult to access them. This book selects and compiles excerpts of health preservation maxims, poems, couplets, and wise sayings for contemplation and enjoyment. The author integrates traditional health preservation culture with modern medical and health care knowledge, summarizing ten key principles of health preservation: disease prevention, dietary appropriateness, exercise, seasonal adaptation, essence preservation, qi conservation, mental wholeness, temperament cultivation, moral cultivation, and medicinal therapy. These principles offer readers profound benefits and endless reflection.
