Health / Orientál Medicine THE TAO OF MEDICINE Ginseng and Other Chinese Herbs for Inner Equílibrium and Immuné Power "His argument is inspired. The book is a courageous endeavour of enormous interest." New Scientist Are there really drugs that can not only cure disease but actually promote longevity, reduce stress, and increase vitality, as the Chinese have believed since ancient times? In The Tao of Medicine, Stephen Fulder explores this fascínating Question and its importance to Western man. A doctor of pharmacology, Fulder examines the proven properties of vitalizing plánt substances known in Chína as the "kingly remedies," focusing especially on ginseng - the most prized of the harmony medicines. Highly esteemed for their safe_yet effective treatment of numerous diseases and imbalances, these remedies achieve their effect by improving inner eQuilibrium and revitalizing the bod/s hormonal functioning. In contrast to harsh, synthetic drugs that are administered after disease has already set in. these nontoxic plánt mediclnes repair and tune the body, strengthen the immuné system, and protect the body from future illness. The author makes a plea for the development of this new class of "harmony drugs" based'on the ancient Chinese view of healing and shows how Orientál medicine can be cultivated and practiced in the West to take full advantage of these life-enhancing formulas.
