Features: This series highlights the concept of "eating for healing." Whether taking traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine, or over-the-counter, or consuming medicinal diets, medicinal porridge, medicinal wine, medicinal tea, or medicinal cakes, as well as ordinary grains, vegetables, fruits, condiments like salt, oil, vinegar, and soy sauce, or even poultry, game, fish, shrimp, and shellfish—all foods and drinks that are ingested and beneficial for disease prevention and recovery fall within the scope of this series. Of course, treating diseases with food and medicine must follow certain principles and guidelines, and there are also things to avoid. While emphasizing oral ingestion and stomach-based treatments, this series does not exclude other therapeutic approaches. The series is primarily aimed at patients and their families, introducing basic knowledge of common and frequently occurring clinical diseases, as well as treatment methods using both Chinese and Western medicine and food. Each volume is organized by chapters, with sub-topics under each chapter. The goal is to make the content accessible, widely understandable, and practical, so that readers can "understand at first glance, use what they understand, apply it effectively, and ensure safety and reliability."
