Features: The book offers a total of 328 medicinal and dietary therapy recipes for liver disease prevention and treatment. Since we often learn traditional Chinese medicine from a Western medicine perspective, it is difficult to avoid errors and shortcomings in the book. Any inaccuracies are kindly requested to be pointed out by readers and professional peers. The book follows the model of "maintaining a healthy liver for those without liver disease, and preventing and treating liver conditions for those with liver disease." It specifically invites nutrition experts to provide liver protection for the general population and to create simple, easy-to-learn, and ready-to-use recipes for different liver disease patients. Additionally, it provides 100 traditional Chinese medicinal and dietary therapy recipes collected and practiced over time for patients with acute and chronic hepatitis, or for readers seeking prevention and treatment of various liver diseases, as well as their family and friends, for targeted use. Based on the fundamental theory of traditional Chinese medicine that food and medicine are interconnected and that liver protection and health maintenance should first focus on dietary regulation, the book compiles 218 modern medicinal and dietary therapy recipes specifically for the prevention and treatment of various liver conditions and associated symptoms, allowing readers to tailor their dietary choices according to time, location, and personal characteristics. Cancer is often a terrible outcome in life, but reasonable food and medicine combination therapy can prevent liver cancer and control the occurrence of various cancers. The book also provides a scientific introduction to cancer-preventive diets.
