Features: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) holds the belief that "medicinal herbs and food are of the same origin." Medicines are food, and food can be medicine—they share the same roots, uses, and effects. According to TCM principles, many small medicinal dishes offer health benefits such as improving eyesight, promoting hair growth, enhancing intelligence, calming the mind, beautifying, moisturizing the skin, boosting vitality, and prolonging life. Others have therapeutic effects like relieving external symptoms, clearing heat, resolving phlegm, promoting Qi flow, activating blood circulation, removing blood stasis, and aiding digestion. Some dishes offer both benefits. Based on this, we invited several renowned TCM experts, medicinal dish specialists, and culinary masters to explore and compile classic works on medicinal diets and dietary care, publishing the "Home Medicinal Dishes" series, which includes five volumes: Home Medicinal Dishes: Kidney Tonification and Yang Enhancement, Home Medicinal Dishes: Dispelling Wind and Removing Dampness, Home Medicinal Dishes: Clearing Heat and Detoxifying, Home Medicinal Dishes: Nourishing the Heart and Calming the Mind, and Home Medicinal Dishes: Beautifying and Slimming. The series aims to recommend practical and effective small medicinal dishes to readers with professional insights. The cooking methods in this book are simple and convenient, with easy-to-understand text, making it easy for families to prepare. It is highly practical and delivers remarkable results.
