Neijing
The Huangdi Neijing is one of the most important medical texts in ancient China, considered the foundational work of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It is primarily composed of two parts: the Suwen and the Lingshu, covering the fundamental theories of TCM, diagnostic methods, treatment principles, and theories of health preservation.
Yin-Yang and Five Elements Theory: The text explains physiological activities and pathological changes in the human body through the lens of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, emphasizing the unity between humans and nature and the principle of harmony between heaven and humans.
