Features: "What should I eat, and what should I avoid?" This is a question often asked by patients to their doctors. They know that many diseases are caused by a lack of certain nutrients in the body; life experience also tells them that improper diet can affect health and the recovery from illness. Not only patients, but also healthy people, may find that after consuming certain foods, they sometimes experience physical discomfort that affects appetite, sleep, or changes in bowel habits. Some people also want to enhance their physical fitness and improve their immunity to diseases through dietary adjustments. Perhaps influenced by traditional culture, Chinese people are more deeply aware of these issues and hope to learn more about the knowledge of "dietary do's and don'ts." This book will not provide specific introductions or analyses of diseases or symptoms, but rather aims to help people eat healthily, better, and more satisfactorily.
