The future of traditional Chinese medicine
Greater Tainan Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine
President Lin Binghuang
Traditional Chinese medicine can take care of the people for thousands of years, not only because of the "old" medicine, but also on the effective drugs researched by human beings when encountering various new and strange diseases in different eras of development. In practice, the doctors who can apply it are not "old" traditional Chinese medicine doctors. They are all a group of advanced elite doctors who have worked hard, renewed and treated outstandingly in all eras. Like modern traditional Chinese medicine doctors, they need clinical practice, teaching, research and recording. Generation after generation, they need to improve the treatment methods in line with the needs of the society at that time, and accumulate, summarize and leave effective methods.
Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine is not an anthes of 5,000 years ago, but the results and empirical evidence of the treatment of a large number of people's diseases used by every generation of doctors every day, and the latest medical product after 5,000 years of continuous treatment every day!
For example, multiple groups of effective traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of COVID-19 are not old prescriptions from 5,000 years ago; but with the evolution of society and human beings at each stage, the changes of microorganisms and the changes of human diseases, the prescription drugs continue, change or fine-tune, the medical prescription is suitable for the needs of human society at that time!
