"Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food."--Hippocrates.


Most of our diseases are afflicted with what we eat, what we think. For TCM, liver is not just an organ but the charger of woman's blood, which is related to menstruation, breast, what's more, emotion, fertility, etc. As the rule of five elements of TCM, wood, fire, earth, metal ,water, which wood represents the function of liver and gall bladder, if the sickness of liver keep progress, it'll infringe to the spleen and stomach, which are belonged to the earth of five elements. That's why at the beginning of liver disease, you feel tired easily, eyes uncomforted, bitter tastes in mouth, lose temper in short time, then if not stop the route of the process, you start feel your stomachache, hyperacid, bloating, or a big change of your appetite. When those symptoms occur , the the state of the illness already encroach to your digestive system.
Dr. Sun Shi-Miau, Tang Dynasty, in his book, "Chian Jing Yau Fang" mentioned, "Top notch physician treats before illness started; average physician treats impending illness started; mediocre physician treats the illness before there."
That's our goal to help patients stop the disease before it happen or intercept the route of the disease. Not only cure, we educate patients be aware of the warning of certain symptoms of body so it's always important to keep the close cooperation between doctors and patients.
For my personal opinion, a good doctor is also a good cook, who know your taste and cure you in a joyful way.
