Give Me a Reason to Accept Traditional Chinese Medicine

What is Traditional Chinese Medicine? Give Me a Reason to Accept Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Nowadays, in the field of medicine, doctors from all over the world have already realized the advantages of Western medicine. Western medicine is a kind of medicines based on Micro knowledge and contributes a lot for wellbeing of people from different countries. It is characterized by accuracy and effectiveness. That is why Western medicine is welcomed and that is also the reason why Traditional Chinese Medicine can not be accepted by people who have used Western medicine for a long time before.

However, Traditional Chinese Medicine has its own characteristics. Some patients are surprised that Chinese Medicine could treat the disease when Western medicine is unavailable. And since more and more examples like that, people around the world start to realize the existence of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Curing disease fundamentally is the most crucial characteristic of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is quite different from Western medicine which is aimed at symptoms only. Western medicine is an effective symptomatic treatment, but sometimes symptoms can not reflect the cause of disease. So the symptoms will occur over and over again. That is why some diseases can not be cured by Western medicine.

The second characteristic of Traditional Chinese Medicine is its minimal side-effect, we all know that the side-effects of Western medicine are obvious. People who want to cure one disease may get another disorder due to Western medicine’s side-effect. Compared with Western medicine, Chinese Medicine’s side-effects are not worth mentioning, but the bitter taste of Chinese Medicine sometimes can not be accepted. Just as an old motto goes in China, “Bitter medicine cures sickness; unpalatable advice benefits conduct.”

Experienced doctors understand the joint effect of Western medicine and Chinese Medicine, and they know that is the best way to treat disease fundamentally and to restrain the symptoms effectively. It is necessary for people from any countries besides those in China to understand Traditional Chinese Medicine, and know its functions and take advantage of it.
