Chinese traditional food therapy.
Chinese food therapy has endured and evolved from the beginning of Chinese civilization to the present day. Basic tenets central to food therapy such as "curing and nourishing come from the same source" and "when you eat, satisfy only seven-tenths of your hunger" have been passed down from generation to generation. Dietetic practice today must take into consideration and respect many of the ancient beliefs for maximum effectiveness with many of today's Chinese.
