TCM dietary therapy
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) dietary therapy focuses on using food not just for nutrition but as a way to balance the body's energy, or "qi." It considers individual health conditions, seasonal changes, and food properties (such as warmth or coolness). By selecting the right foods, TCM aims to prevent illness, support healing, and enhance overall well-being. Foods are categorized by their flavors, temperatures, and effects on the body, guiding choices to promote harmony within. This approach emphasizes the importance of mindful eating and tailoring diets to individual needs for optimal health.
