每年10月18日是世界傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)藥日(World Traditional Medicine Day )。隨著化學(xué)藥品毒副作用不斷出現(xiàn),藥源性疾病日益增加,以及生化藥品研制成本昂貴等問題,人們開始呼喚回歸大自然,希望用天然藥物和綠色植物來治療疾病 和保健。中醫(yī)有其獨(dú)特優(yōu)勢(shì),而由于作用機(jī)理難以闡明,癥狀描述太過主觀等原因,不易被患者接受。你更相信中醫(yī)還是西醫(yī)?
At the heart of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is the tenet that the root cause of illnesses, not their symptoms, must be treated.
傳統(tǒng)中醫(yī)的精髓是治病需治本。
