We often say "good medicine tastes bitter". To cure diseases, we must drink bitter medicine. In fact, not all medicines are bitter, but they are also delicious. This is a medicated diet. "Combination of medicine and food" not only treats medicine as food, but also endows food with medicine. Medicine depends on the power of food, and food helps medicine. It not only has nutritional value, but also can prevent and treat diseases, keep fit and prolong life. Medicinal diet is a delicious food that gives full play to the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine, especially satisfies people's "drug-averse and food-loving" nature, and is easy to popularize and widely spread. It can be made at home and is a special dosage form of traditional Chinese medicine which is deeply loved by the people.
China people have been inspired by this since ancient times. The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are the embryonic period of medicated diet. Huangdi Neijing records "Banxia japonica rice soup" and "Danggui mutton soup". After being sorted and collected by doctors, medicated diet has gradually developed into such a rich, effective and far-reaching health care method today.
"Medicinal diet is not a general nutritious food, but a modern functional food. When Chinese medicine is matched with food, it can make the medicine taste, help the medicine, and change the "bitter medicine" into "good medicine". Although medicated diet has many functions such as rich diet, health care and disease prevention, it should follow certain principles and should not be abused.
