Li Shizhen, a renowned physician of the Ming Dynasty, once said, "The eater is the lifeblood of the human body. Diet is related to health, and it determines health and life. Eating poorly affects health, and eating improperly can be life-threatening.
Professor Weng Weijian advocates that doctors should put dietotherapy in the first place.
