The origins of Chinese medicine date back several thousand years and are closely linked with the philosophy of the East, in which the harmony between yin and yang, as well as the holistic approach to a human being - his body and mind, are the most important. In the Chinese traditional medicine a diet plays a huge role. Both the prevention and the treatment of diagnosed diseases are dominated by natural vegetable products – dried fruit, seeds, roots and herbs. Among the most popular medicinal products in Chinese medicine there are honeysuckle, ginger, ginkgo, green tea, ginseng, cinnamon and chrysanthemums.
