Summary of Dr Hou's Presentation

- Summarized by Edward Wan

Topic: Anti-aging Practices -Chinese medicine approaches to protect cells and organ damages

Dr. Hou begin the seminar by explaining the fundamental aspects of Traditional Chinese Medicine including the concept of Yin

(the visible part of your body like organs) and Yan (the invisible parts of your body like Qi). She explained that the aging is a nature

process that can be traced directly at the individual cell level. The human body is constantly renewed itself by replacing aging cells

with new cells. As we grow old, the body’s renewing process is slowing down and thus affects every part of the body including the

organ functions, the immune systems, and neurological systems. She has shown that a variety of diseases could be linked to the

deterioration and degeneration of body cells. She explained that, sometimes, the western medicines only address the prevention

of acute symptoms and neglect the repairs and curing of20fundamental causes. For example, she explained that most patients

having high-blood pressure was the direct result of fatty fiber deposits building up in the blood vessel, making the narrowing of

the blood vessel. The western medicines tackle the problem by prescribing water bill, calcium blocker etc. In contrast, the Chinese

medicine try to break up the fatty fiber structures interconnected within the vessel wall. She mentioned that a Chinese food, Shanchar,

is a powerful ingredient for lowering blood pressure in the long run.

Dr. Hou indicated that Traditional Chinese medicine has made a

tremendous stride in recent years by incorporating proven western medical diagnostic techniques. Since the traditional Chinese method

for diagnostic the patients are primarily depending on examining the persona’s tongue and measuring the person’s pause. These methods

are sometimes obsolete because the patient may have taken some medications that could hide the symptoms. Thus, she would prefer to

treat patients who have already known or diagnose with acute symptoms of known diseases.

During the last 30 minutes, Dr. Hou demonstrated her experience by examining individual’s tongue. It was amazing that Dr Hou was able to

reveal potential health problems for many people by just examining individual’s tongue (the shape, the color, the broken pattern etc.)
