Chinese Medicine, The Power of Food.

Ever since life first formed on earth there has been a continuous search for food. Food is, after all, the only thing keeping most of us alive. When life first came into existence the concept of food and nourishment was a difficult one - food was needed for survival but most people did not know what they could and could not eat. Thus, in the beginning, it was more of a trial and error process than anything else. As early humans began to experiment with different foods, Chinese people began to realize that some foods could be used as medicine. The whole concept of Chinese medicine actually originated from the search for food rather than the search for medicine.

Three dynasties are highlighted as pivotal in the implementation of Chinese medicine: the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasty. It was in the Xia dynasty that Chinese Baijiu was first invented. In modern day China it is well-known as a type of alcohol but it was first invented as a form of medicine which was mixed with herbs, something that is still used, if only rarely, to this day. In the Shang dynasty, a number of the emperor’s cooks discovered that cooking food in different ways made different types of medicines that offered a wide variety of benefits. It is recorded that food doctors were first officially implemented in the Zhou dynasty. The doctors were key to maintaining the health of the emperor, as they ensured that he ate the correct foods to keep him healthy and alive, a position very similar to a modern-day dietician.

Sun Yongxian believes that global food medicine should be guided by three main aspects of Chinese medicine theory: 

1

Individual: everyone’s medicinal requirements are different, based on their age, height, and current health situation. 

2

Time: the effects of time on certain medicines, specifically the effects of the different seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter. Some medicines may be more effective in one season than in another. 

3

Location: where you live, work, and socialize can affect what medicine you need.
