Features: Bencao Gangmu is an immortal masterpiece compiled by the Ming Dynasty Chinese physician Li Shizhen with his life's dedication. Since its publication, it has been cherished by people and its brilliance has not dimmed with the passage of time. Today, we have collected various versions of Bencao Gangmu and selected and edited therapeutic recipes that are closer to our lives and highly practical, hence the name Bencao Baibing Liefang. We have also made significant adjustments to the order, placing our main food categories—vegetables, fruits, and grains—first and emphasizing them. This book provides detailed introductions to their edible value, processing methods, and therapeutic recipes. We all know that each food has different nourishing effects on the human body, but if we understand its effects on us, can't we make better use of it? During the editing process, we selected only a small portion of the less commonly used sections in modern times, such as the Water, Human, and Stone sections, as embellishments to maintain the book's basic completeness. The feature of this book is that it converts the original classical Chinese into colloquial language, making it easy to understand, accessible to the general public, and highly practical.
