Features: TCM diet therapy has a long history and profound origins, with the saying "medicine and food are of the same origin" since ancient times. TCM diet therapy is a combination of medicinal herbs and food, offering both the disease-preventive and therapeutic effects of medicine, as well as the color, aroma, flavor, and presentation of Chinese cuisine. It is increasingly valued in health preservation and clinical medicine, and has a widespread foundation in folk use. To promote the valuable culture of TCM diet therapy and improve people's health, the China Society of TCM Diet Therapy has carefully selected 125 TCM diet therapy recipes. The book focuses on introducing their ingredient compositions, cooking methods, interpretation of the recipes, and target audiences, elaborating on the scientific principles in detail. Combined with the practical experience of the authors, it reflects the latest domestic and international research achievements in TCM diet therapy, demonstrating strong practicality and is accompanied by exquisite illustrations. The aim is not only to help people master the knowledge and cooking methods of TCM diet therapy but also to eat well, eat scientifically, and eat healthily, facilitating syndrome differentiation-based diet therapy to enhance physical fitness, improve sub-health conditions, prevent disease occurrence, and maintain health. This book is not only suitable for family use but also serves as a reference for TCM diet therapy education and training, TCM diet therapy food research, health preservation and rehabilitation departments, as well as TCM diet therapy restaurants, hotels, and inns.
