\"Michelle\"<\/a>[From the Editor\u00a0 \u7f16\u8005\u7684\u8bdd]<\/a> Food As Medicine Issue <\/strong>by Michelle Wood welcomes you to this delicious issue — foods as medicine, an important part of Yang-Sheng practice, and shares the news of her departure from Yang-Sheng.<\/p>\n

\"Helen<\/a>[Featured Article \u7cbe\u9009\u6587\u7ae0] Traditional Chinese Medicine, Food Therapy, and Pro Cancer Condition <\/strong><\/a>by Helen Hu, OMD Lac, discusses how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can help prevent cancer by establishing a strong immune system through foods.

[Quantum Healing with Dr. Lu \u54a8\u8be2\u9646\u533b\u751f] \u201cGain Energy, Lose Weight\u201d – How to \u201cEat Healthy\u201d for a Healthy Weight<\/strong> <\/a>by Dr Lu of the TCM World Foundation, tells us that the Chinese medicine way of eating for weight loss is totally different from the Western concept! Instead of focusing on eating foods that are low-calorie, take more calories to digest, or help build metabolically active muscle tissue, the Eastern way to eat for health is to rebalance the body and boost its energy levels. In other words, one eats to \u201cgain energy, lose weight.\u201d Thankfully, with this approach, one doesn\u2019t have to count calories!<\/p>\n

\"Shuan<\/a>[Food As Medicine \u98df\u7597] The Natural Medicine: Food Mood, Food and Movement—Three Secrets of Health, Part IV<\/strong><\/a> By Shiuan Gee continues from her last article. This month she explains how we can make these three balances work well through mindful food choices and invites you to think about all the nearby grocery stores and food markets as your food pharmacies with no prescriptions and with no worries about chemical pollution or medicinal reactions.<\/p>\n

[TCM Food Therapy \u4e2d\u533b\u98df\u7597] From Shen Nong site:\u00a0Why different foods are consumed each season and what are their health benefits?<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the world is a harmonious and holistic entity where all living beings are viewed in relation to the surrounding environment. Since ancient times, the Chinese have tried to explain different complicated phenomena by creating yin yang or the five elements theories.<\/p>\n

\"Ellasara<\/a>[Seasonal Harmony \u5b63\u8282\u7684\u548c\u8c10] Seasonal Harmony<\/strong><\/a> By Ellasara Kling. True health might be described quite simply as a state of a harmonious, free flow of energy creating balance, unification, and gentle vibrancy of the mind\/ body\/spirit. In natural healing modalities, it is the unique combination of energy and information in the \u201cmedicine\u201d that is transmitted to the body. The axiom of Chinese medicine truly rules: Prevention is the best cure!<\/p>\n

\"Medicinal-Herbs-300x199\"<\/a>[Chinese Wisdom \u524d\u4eba\u667a\u6167] Medicinal Herbs<\/strong><\/a> by Pacific Herbs tells us about the a long tradition in China of using medicinal herbs in cuisine. The Chinese Ministry of Health has a list which includes more than 80 foods that can be used both as food and medicine, more than 110 herbs used for health and 59 ingredients forbidden in foods for health purposes.<\/p>\n

[Method of Self-Healing \u81ea\u6108\u6cd5] The Care of Person in Tai Chi as Educative Mutuality <\/strong><\/a>by Mauro Carboni begins through an axiom that may be viewed as a paradoxical form of thought that, in some ways, may remind as of the Taoist thoughtful approach: Tai Chi works caring for the person, because it doesn’t.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"lilian_kluivers-zw-klein_thumb\"<\/a>[Experience Exchange \u7ecf\u9a8c\u4ea4\u6d41] Preparing for fall <\/strong><\/a>by Lilian Kluivers shares easy exercises and advises to strengthen you chi during summer and fall, and explains the Shen cycle and how to use it: Summer is – besides a Season of its own – also at the same time a preparation for Fall. Taking good care of yourself in Summer, when the Fire-element is most active, means you will experience Autumn more energetically. You will feel nourished during Summer at the same time.<\/p>\n

We deserve to know something about someone who was lucky enough to have studied Taijiquan from Chen Yao, who himself was extremely good, and was the son [along with Chen Xin], of the hero Chen Zhong Xin.<\/p>\n

\"Kevin<\/a>[Food as Medicine] The\u00a018 Foods That Can Effectively Eliminate Cancel Cells Within,<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0Edited by Kevin W Chen. There is a common Chinese saying, “Diseases come from the mouth.”\u00a0 These seemingly simple words in fact contain several levels of meaning: Health issues, nutrition, food safety, and the even deeper issue of healthy diet and food as medicine. \u00a0Here we share 18 foods that can effectively kill or eliminate cancer cells within our bodies according to Chinese medicine and modern research, and should be considered as healthy food.<\/p>\n
