Medicated Diet


Chinese medicated diet has a long history. It is not a simple combination of food and Chinese drugs, but a special highly finished diet made from Chinese drugs, food and condiments under the theoretical guidance of diet preparation based on differentiation of symptoms and signs of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It has not only the efficiency of medicine but also the delicacy of food, and can be used to prevent and cure diseases, built up one’s health and prolong one’s life. Early in remote antiquity the Chinese nation began to explore the function of food and medicaments, hence the saying “Traditional Chinese medicine and diet both originate from the practice and experience in daily life.” The extant earliest monograph on material medica, many sorts of medicaments which are both drugs and food were recorded, such Lenten, gingeli, grape, kernel, lily.

Cupping

 

  • Fire cupping or simply cupping is a form of traditional medicine found in several cultures. It involves placing glass, plastic, or bamboo cups on the skin.


Moxibustion

 

  • Moxibustion is an oriental medicine therapy utilizing moxa, or mugwort herb. It plays an important role in the traditional medical systems of China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Tibet, and Mongolia. Suppliers usually age the mugwort and grind it up to a fluff; practitioners burn the fluff or process it further into a stick that resembles a (non-smokable) cigar. They can use it indirectly, with acupuncture needles, or sometimes burn it on a patient's skin.
