This work presents up-to-date information on chemical,
pharmacological, clinical studies and historical uses of common
dietary Chinese herbs. Authored by native experts in the
field, the reader is introduced to
each herb with a brief chronological review of
Chinese literature on dietary herb uses, with chapters dedicated to
each selected herb including color photos for
each herb. In addition, Â Chinese characters as well as
the Latin botanical name indices, and chemical structures for
the known active compounds are also provided. The clear
layout examines the health benefits that have been studied for
centuries, including current clinical and toxicological data.
A wide range of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbs are
investigated for their suitability into daily diets for maintaining
general wellness or disease prevention. In the past decades,
natural health products, dietary supplements, functional foods, or
nutraceuticals have emerged in the West due to the increasing
demand for non-pharmaceutical healthcare products. Traditional
Chinese Medicine disease prevention and treatment incorporates the
use of foods, and herbal medicine in an integrated manner, and thus
the dietary Chinese herbs in used in TCM for thousands of years
could be sources for developing new, effective, and safe
ingredients to capture the rapidly expanding opportunity in the
global market place.
