Features: These chapters include taboos on medication, who should not laugh, post-surgery taboos—each filled with practical knowledge that is often overlooked. Understanding these taboos can greatly help in the recovery of illnesses. From both traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine perspectives, there are many taboos when one is sick, taking medication, or in the early stages of recovery. However, common misconceptions often lead people to believe that TCM has more taboos while Western medicine has fewer, ignoring the fact that the principles of pharmacology are actually interconnected. As a result, many suffer from "prolonged illness without recovery" or delay treatment without knowing the reason.
Based on decades of experience and insight in both Eastern and Western medicine, the author of this book summarizes taboos and medication guidelines for common diseases. Using simple language, the book explains the similarities and differences between TCM and Western medicine perspectives, enabling readers to carefully "avoid taboos" while also learning about the effects and reactions of TCM and Western medications on the human body. This helps prevent the "incompatibility" of drugs or foods when used together, making it a highly practical and valuable book for home use.
