摘要：
In this article, the author attempts to use a new graphic model (a Centrist Medicine model) to represent the basic tenets of Chinese medicine on health vs. ailment. With this model, the relationship among food, functional food and medicine is illustrated. The 9 Body Constitutions Classification recently proposed in China is also introduced to demonstrate the use of functional food/medicine to prevent diseases and to maintain health within the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) context.
