Avoid certain food in Western medicine

The food taboo is more than one kind of source concepts, it is early in various medical tradition development, it is very obvious that the food follows the healthy relation. Once the hard wooden tablet or slip for writing of treatise discussed food and healthy relation in Hippocrates is in curing the theory of him, what kind of food is favorable to recover, what kind of food causes the morbid state again. Refuse from Hippocrates' Western medicine mysteriously because of spreading, his discussion majority accords with western general knowledge (basic logic is judged) so far ,So the food follows the healthy relation and does not need especially advicing in Western medicine, for example you will not irritate the next large wine for your sick child, the food taboo complies with the natural taboo in Western medicine, do not represent that does not interfere patients to eat and drink arbitrarily arbitrarily in Western medicine.

In Western medicine, what doctors sought is the positive function of the food, it was rational food and nutrition that was emphasized, even can't change the course of disease, the patient wants the advantage brought to enjoy the food, Western medicine is still devoted to letting the medicine be turned into food, lower the discomfort of the treatment to minimum. The studying and courting of nutrition, born in nutritionist trade, in the hospital of China, the nutritionist can hardly see, and the nutritionist that saw outside the hospital, nearly all have false suspicion that propagate.

Nutrition is a meticulous science

The mankind is very interested in the plant to the exploration of the nature while turning to agro-farming economy, China has statement of tasting one hundred grasses of legendary god of farming, in fact the purpose that the legendary god of farming tastes one hundred grasses is not for medicine at all, but in order to develop the plant food, human economy makes the transition with the increasing in a large amount of population big, just there is a larger pressure on the food demand, far exceed the pursuit to medical treatment. So, Shen Nong's legend, should make into " the legendary god of farming tastes one hundred dishes " ,The legendary god of farming tastes one hundred dishes to have no contribution to ancient medicine, but to feeding the full our ancestor's meaning outstandingly.

In the history of human development, food refers to contain rich amount of three major organic mattering for a long time, can body offer energy and material of construction material, such a definition and country yet effective in under-developed area, this three major organic matter are protein, fat and candy that everybody is familiar with, whether could qualify for can be called the fooding, see the content of these compositions among them mainly, the so-called inferior food means these three kinds of material content are too less, the food that the human utilization ratio is too low, even if most plants are such as being called edible wild herbs.

Say, the science of the so-called adequate food and clothing defines it is to satisfy people's demands for the three main nutriment on the total amount of heat to a certain extent. Modern nutrition has already surmounted three major nutriment, has paid close attention to vitamin, mineral, cellulose and other micro- nutrient, and modern medical science finds again ultra quantity takes in the negative function on the health of three major nutriment. Nutrition become one meticulous balanced science, in patient being in critical state, for example while needing hospital treatment, the nutritionist not only can give an added grace to what is already beautiful, can also provide timely help sometimes, in a word, can make patient's interests maximize.

There is no food counteracted

Three major nutriment can transform each other in the human body, any chemical reaction will not take place either each other, in people's food, the nutrient component can still happen behind entering the human body it is not very few the probability of chemical reaction which the human body control. The fibrous composition that the human body does not absorb will be turned into excrement and urine, this is very important, because the human body needs these things to produce some compositions essential for human body with the bacterium which the human body grows from the large intestine behind entering large intestine.

Nutrition of food pays close attention to deficiency and surplus of the nutrient component, but does not basically pay close attention to the fact what food cool and hot and cold and warm, characteristic of counteracting each other etc.. Since count one by one and must choose to become food every year by the mankind, any chemical reaction will not take place each other in they, even happen, it will be before digesting and assimilating, to digesting and absorbing and producing slight influence at most, after will not extend to and digest and assimilate ing. So-called food and medicine counteract each other further, just a kind of culture phenomenon, do not have scientific reason, in fact so-called food counteracted of overwhelming majority to stem from traditional assuming as a matter of course, eat the equilibrium that can keep the human nutrient component taking in even more instead together.

Modern medical science have, avoid certain food occasionally too, but reason, often obviously, for example, the intersection of digestive tract and fasting under surgery, in order to the time when offers the digestive tract to repair the wound. Avoid certain food and seldom direct against so-and-so's food, one can be eaten, other things can be eaten too, because the food is the food.

Extend and read: How was the food taboo produced?

Originated from traditional medical science and Indian A of China to breed and bark medical science of the top in food taboo, so the food taboo mainly prevails in China and India.

Even if modern medical science, can't remedy the consequence that the medical fault cause either, that's why the western countries if charge the medical fault succeeds, compensation volume is always so enormous a reason.


To ancient doctor, its consequence is crueler, people, will fall ill, including those power person, if doctor's result while treating them makes people unsatisfied, while getting the satisfactory reply again, the doctor will often pay the cost of the life. In the oldest Chinese plan Lapie's code, doctors are cut the punishment of the hand broken foot easily. Chinese Huatuo's legend is a kind of refraction of doctor's destiny, no matter he manages and not manages Cao Cao in the legend, his destiny has been destined.

The food taboo has created a natural excuse for doctor with the medical responsibility of prevarication - -In the historical background, they can't criticize, their medical level at that time made them unable to bear those medical responsibility. If a noble dies unfortunately, the doctor treating can point out the place where his food violates the prohibition easily, the doctor does not decide what a patient eats, what is eaten noble decides to think of frequently, the doctor has reduced one's own medical responsibility greatly through the food taboo as a result, in the society chopping off the head easily and imprisoning, doctors have protected one's own personal security through the taboo concept of food.
