Six basic features of TCM health science

The most prominent feature of TCM health science is that it is guided by TCM theory, which uses the doctrine of yin and yang five elements, the doctrine of Tibetan phenomena, meridian theory, etc., and innovates and develops the traditional health doctrine, making TCM health science more scientific and practical. Below I give you the six basic characteristics of Chinese medicine health science, I hope it is useful to you!

Chinese medicine health science basic characteristics of 1, in order to nourish the gas as the key.

Qi is a concept unique to Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine health science attaches great importance to the maintenance of qi. Gas is the most basic substance that constitutes the world, and everything in the universe, including human beings, is generated by the movement of gas, so the important task of health care is how to maintain the human body's gas, in order to maintain the positive gas as the basis.

Basic features of TCM health science 2, emphasizing the treatment of disease.

? Undiseased? is the possible occurrence of disease or possible secondary symptoms. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine was the first to propose ? treatment of the future disease? The principle of treating the disease before it occurs was first put forward in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. The so-called treatment of the not-yet-diseased, in short, it includes two main aspects, that is, when the disease is not yet sick, to take measures to prevent the occurrence of disease; and after the disease is already sick, to take measures to prevent the disease from developing, transmitting, and deteriorating. From this we can see that the first aspect of the meaning of curing the future illness is consistent with the contents of health maintenance. From the second aspect of the meaning, if the patient consciously or under the guidance of the doctor, to take medication, food therapy, or living, qigong, gymnastics and other methods to prevent the development of the disease, to promote the recovery, it is also the behavior of health care. Zhang Zhongjing's Nutritional prudence is the idea of treating the disease before it develops. This idea was introduced in the very first chapter of The Essentials of the Golden Chamber. The core of "Nourishing Prudence" is to avoid the six evils externally and to nourish righteousness internally. The idea of "treating the future disease" has been the mainstay of health care throughout the ages. The idea has been emphasized by many generations of health scientists.

Basic features of TCM health science 3, emphasize the virtue of health.

TCM health science emphasizes the importance of moral cultivation for health and longevity. This is a basic point of view of TCM health science. This is one of the basic ideas of TCM health care. Yongya" and "Kongji? Both of them record Confucius' view on the longevity of those who are benevolent, believing that people who are benevolent, loving and kind-hearted can enjoy a long life. Laozi regarded charity, thrift and not being the first in the world as three valuable spiritual assets in life, and similarly emphasized moral cultivation. Zhuangzi also emphasized the importance of spiritual life in his discussion of health maintenance. Having a benevolent heart not only leads to a long and healthy life for oneself, but also enables others to live a long and healthy life. If a ruler is benevolent, his people will also live long. In the Book of Han, Dong Zhongshu's biography, it is said that The biography of Dong Zhongshu says, "When Yao and Shun practiced virtue, the people were benevolent. When the whole society has sincere love and care, a healthy and long-lived society will naturally emerge. To be benevolent and to cultivate virtue is to cultivate righteousness internally, which belongs to the scope of the health care science of nourishing the spirit and the heart.

Basic features of TCM health science 4, emphasizing the neutral and sectional.

Traditional Chinese health science has always been viewed as neutral and moderate, no too much, no too late. It's not too late. For example, the combination of static and dynamic, dietary discipline, living in a regular manner, do not want to work, so that you can achieve the yin and yang qi and blood peace, good health and longevity. Han? Hua Tuo said: ? The human body wants to get labor, but can not make extreme ear. This is the embodiment of the principle of neutralization. Jin? Tao Hongjing said: can be in and will be long life. Ancient Chinese five bird play, eight brocade, tai chi and other health care gymnastics are embodied in the pursuit of harmony. TCM health care advocates through appropriate means, when necessary, with drugs to adjust the human body's bias so that its blood and qi yin and yang returned to peace and harmony.

Chinese medicine health science basic features 5, pay attention to diet and health.

The health care practitioners of the past generations have attached the greatest importance to diet and health care. During the Warring States period, the famous doctor Bian Magpie said: do not know the food is appropriate, not enough to survive. (See "Thousands of gold to be square? Food? This article focuses on the dietary health of the medical saint Zhang. In "The Essentials of the Golden Chamber", Zhang Zhongjing especially emphasized the significance of diet and health, he said: ? All dietary flavors to nourish the body. If there is any harm in eating, it can be harmful.? He pointed out that one of the important principles of diet is to take food and save its cold, hot, bitter, sour, pungent and sweet. (The Essentials of the Golden Chamber? Viscera, meridians and channels of successive diseases, pulse evidence and treatment of the first" a section of the word, the diet should pay attention to the quality and quantity of the two aspects of the rationality of the expression to understand. Section is not too much less. Overfood any kind of food flavor may lead to the bias of the viscera function, viscera dysfunction, disease and thus born. He also said: since the non-drug refining liquid, how can not eat? Cut to see the people, not free to regulate, disease rash even up, if not due to food and birth? Gouquan its life, we must know that the taboo is carried out. The taste of food, there are appropriate with the disease, there are harmful to the body, if appropriate for the benefit of the body, the harm is into a disease, thus causing danger, examples are difficult to treat. ("Beasts, insects and fish taboos and treatment of the twenty-fourth") This passage is concise: people's food and dietary practices, appropriate to the body is beneficial, otherwise it will be harmful to the body. Those who cherish life should be good at regulating their bodies through diet and health care. Otherwise, it may cause diseases and affect the quality and quantity of life. Zhongjing also said: the human body and peace, only good will be raised, do not take medicines, medicines are partial to help, so that the hidden gas is not flat, vulnerable to external danger. The gas and so on, there is no food to survive, but do not know the success or failure of food. Hundreds of daily use and do not know, water and fire to close and difficult to recognize. (See "Thousand Golden Essentials? According to Sun Simiao's statement, the reason why he made a volume of "food rule" is precisely because of the influence of the language of this paragraph by Zhongjing.

Zhang Zhongjing's dietary regimen has several basic principles and elements:

(1) Take in dietary substances that are good for life.

(2) Avoid eating food that is harmful to the body.

The world's gas is born, the law of the four seasons. (Suwen? Bao life full form theory"), people must adapt to the changes in the four seasons of yin and yang. The Ling Shu? (The Essay on the Essence of God) says: ? Therefore, the wise man's health care must conform to the four seasons and adapt to the heat and cold. If this is the case, then the evils will not arrive, and you will live a long life. Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever? The Example of Typhoid Cold" says: "The gentleman cultivates yang in spring and summer, and in autumn and winter, he cultivates yang. A gentleman nourishes the yang in spring and summer, and the yin in fall and winter, in accordance with the rigidity and flexibility of heaven and earth. People should nourish the qi of birth in spring, the qi of growth in summer, the qi of astringency in fall, and the qi of closure in winter. This is the Chinese medicine? Heaven and man correspond?
