Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) emphasizes a balanced diet, as stated in the Canon: “Grains nourish, fruits assist, meats benefit, and vegetables support.” This principle highlights the need for a variety of food groups to maintain health. TCM believes an exclusively vegetarian diet may weaken the body by lacking essential nutrients, especially those that strengthen Qi and blood, like those in meat. A diet too focused on cold and raw foods can also harm digestion and lead to imbalances. Dr. Man Herbal advises a well-rounded diet based on this classical wisdom, ensuring the body receives proper nourishment from all food groups to support overall health and well-being.
