Treatise on Warm Epidemics (Wen Yi Lun) — The First Monograph on Infectious Diseases
The Treatise on Warm Epidemics (Wen Yi Lun), written by Wu Youxing in 1642, is China's first monograph on infectious diseases. It first proposed the theory of "li qi" (virulent qi) as the cause of epidemics, breaking through the traditional six-qi doctrine. It clarified airborne and contact transmission routes, the specificity of epidemic pathogens, and the importance of the body's righteous qi in resisting disease, and created treatments such as Dayuan Yin. The book laid the foundation for the development of the warm disease doctrine and has had a profound influence on the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in Chinese medicine.

Millennia-Old Herbs: Gifts of Nature
Chinese herbal medicine uses natural substances such as plants and minerals, guided by the time-honored principle of “food and medicine sharing the same origin.” An effective herbal formula is never a random mixture; it is rigorously composed according to an individual’s constitution and disease pattern. It works gently yet persistently to awaken and support the body’s innate self-healing power, largely avoiding the harsh burdens that often accompany chemical pharmaceuticals.
