Description

We had a look at the basic structure of European naturopathy and dietetics theory founded by Hildegarde of Bingen in vol.1. Her teaching had spread out over Europe after the medieval era and it became the concrete base of medicinal treatment.Now, let's have a gaze at Asia where Traditional Chinese Medicine was born, formed, and been influential on health habits over centuries. Traditional Chinese Medicine put importance on the balance between humans and nature, among organs, and between the human body and qi. It's focusing on more preventive actions, and the significance of dietetics, and holistic approaches as the cure of health conditions.Thus, we can see interesting common points between the European naturopathy theory by Hildegarde of Bingen and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Both say that Daily dietetics is an indispensable key factor needed to keep a good balance and that it should be made a routine.On the other hand, Traditional Chinese Medicine has a unique idea of classification for foods and human body types.Foods are divided into groups by properties, and the body types are defined by the status of qi, blood, and water inside the body.Once you know how to define the type of food and your own body constitution type, it will help your daily conditioning and keep the better condition naturally.Please note that you can watch lecture videos, and lecture in text in English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean.
