Chinese medicine works best when combined with lifestyle modifications. For example, nutrition is a key part of Chinese medicine and focuses on the therapeutic properties of foods instead of analyzing the chemical constituents of them. The advantage of this approach lies in its ability to customize to every individual’s needs. Furthermore, Chinese nutrition takes into consideration such factors as method of preparation, body type, season, and one’s geographical location in determining the appropriate diet.
