Chinese food therapy has endured and evolved from the beginning of Chinese civilization to the present day. Basic tenets central to food therapy such as "curing and nourishing come from the same source" and "when you eat, satisfy only seven-tenths of your hunger" have been passed down from generation to generation. Dietetic practice today must take into consideration and respect many of the ancient beliefs for maximum effectiveness with many of today's Chinese.
中国食疗自中华文明伊始便一直存在并不断发展至今。食疗的一些核心基本原则，如“药食同源”和“食不过饱，七成而已”等，代代相传。如今的饮食实践必须考虑并尊重许多古老的理念，这样才能对当今的许多中国人发挥最大功效。
