Longevity is a dream many aspire to but one that is absolutely unattainable. Thus, people settle for the next best thing—hoping for health, longevity, and minimal illness or discomfort. As a result, various theories on disease prevention and health maintenance have emerged, with the principle of "food and medicine are one" being particularly well-accepted. It is believed that "with the right dietary approach, one can largely avoid illness," or "during illness, proper diet can alleviate symptoms."
From this, it is clear that every meal should be approached with caution—never indulging in cravings at the expense of health. This book provides simple-to-cook health-preserving recipes for common symptoms such as iron-deficiency anemia, menstrual irregularities, insomnia, excessive obesity, skin aging, osteoporosis, decreased energy, high blood pressure, high blood lipids, constipation, low blood pressure, and elderly-related conditions. The recipes use easily accessible ingredients and require no complicated cooking procedures, allowing you to prepare delicious health-preserving dishes effortlessly. Each section also introduces several dietary therapy remedies for your choice.
The final section is "Household Hot Beverages," featuring 12 traditional hot drinks passed down through generations. When your family has a cold, menstrual cramps, or other mild symptoms, using ingredients like scallions, ginger, garlic, or simple materials can help alleviate discomfort.
