Features: Food therapy, as the name suggests, refers to dietary plans prepared using food or edible medicinal ingredients, combined with seasonings, through various cooking methods. These dishes not only offer high nutritional value but also help prevent and treat diseases, as well as promote health and fitness. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, food therapy and medicinal diets are particularly effective in reinforcing the body's vital energy and strengthening its foundation. This is because the foods and medicinal ingredients used in food therapy are often supplements, appearing as food but functioning as medicine. They harness the properties of medicinal ingredients while leveraging the flavors of food, working synergistically to achieve the dual effects of enhancing the efficacy of food with medicinal power and vice versa. In disease prevention and treatment, they are as effective as pure medicinal treatments. Precisely for this reason, we have compiled this "New Series of Health and Wellness Food Therapy," aiming to fully utilize China's rich culinary culture and cooking methods to serve readers, empowering the general public to take charge of their health and, as much as possible, reduce the financial burden of medical expenses for patients.
Browsing through ancient literature, the content related to traditional Chinese medicine food therapy and medicinal diets is vast and profound, with countless treasures waiting to be selected. When compiling this series, we strove to refine the essence, discard the dross, and simplify the complex, based on a thorough collection of historical and modern medicinal diet resources. Guided by the principles of scientific rigor, practicality, and feasibility, we categorized, summarized, refined, and elevated the information, resulting in six sub-books: Female Beauty and Health Recipes, Male Strength and Wellness Recipes, Senior Health and Longevity Recipes, Children's Nutrition and Health Recipes, Common Health and Wellness Recipes, and Home Common Illness Cooking Recipes. Each sub-book presents the preparation methods of food therapy and medicinal diets for various conditions in simple and accessible language, scientifically and systematically. Each recipe is detailed in four aspects: "Ingredients," "Effects," "Preparation," and "Usage," concise yet comprehensive, to ensure readers can "understand, learn, and apply."
Although food therapy and medicinal diets are diverse and highly effective, not every recipe is suitable for everyone. This is because individual constitutions vary, and clinical manifestations differ. Therefore, when selecting and applying food therapy, it is essential to follow the principle of syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine and choose recipes based on one's specific condition.

This book is part of the Health and Wellness Food Therapy Series, drawing on the essence of modern and ancient food therapy and medicinal diets, integrating health, strength, and disease treatment.

They serve as a scientific guide to dietary practices that combine food supplementation and food therapy.
