Features: In China's medical treasury, there is a wealth of classic recipes for beauty, weight loss, and skin whitening. For example, in the bamboo slips unearthed from the Mawangdui site in Changsha, there are recipes for treating verrucae. Over thousands of years of exploration and clinical practice by generations of physicians, Chinese medicine beauty literature has become more abundant and systematic, reaching its peak of perfection during the Qing Dynasty. Works such as Zizhi Tongjian, Qianjin Shizhi, and Yixin Fang all include recipes and methods for "beauty and skin nourishment." For instance, Zhou Fang has a dedicated section on beauty, recording recipes like the face creams of the Tang Dynasty beauty Yang Guifei and the secret formula "even the unattractive can shine."
The Chinese herbal medicines mentioned in this book can be purchased from herbal medicine shops across the country, while the foods are readily available in supermarkets and farmers' markets. Each dish includes a recipe, efficacy, preparation method, and serving instructions. The text is simple, clear, and easy to understand, highly practical, and easy to cook. The recipes can be selected and adapted based on individual needs.
When reading this book, it is particularly important to follow the guidance of an experienced TCM practitioner when consuming the medicinal diet therapy and recipes. Due to differences in individual constitutions and varying conditions, discomfort should be stopped immediately if experienced during consumption. This book is suitable for families, restaurants, hotels, patients, and enthusiasts of medicinal diet therapy to read and prepare.
