Can Chinese medicine cure diseases?

Chinese medicine can really cure diseases, and the curative effect is quite good.

Traditional Chinese medicine is the traditional culture of the Chinese nation with a history of thousands of years. With the changes of society, Chinese medicine has been paid more and more attention, especially during the period of SARS and COVID-19. There is no specific medicine in western medicine, but Chinese medicines such as honeysuckle, lotus root, rose and cyrtomium fortunei have been proved to have antiviral effects.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) takes the overall concept and syndrome differentiation as the treatment principle, and pays more attention to the change of symptoms. As a China person, it is also our responsibility and obligation to carry forward and inherit Chinese medicine culture. In recent years, with the rise of great health, people pay more and more attention to their own health. Prevention is the main method to treat disease before it occurs, which is consistent with the current thinking, but the view of treating disease before it occurs from the origin of traditional Chinese medicine, with a history of thousands of years.
