心善精神爽，言清色润鲜，疮疼兼不渴，寤寐两安然。肝善身体便，睛明不怒烦，指头
红活色，起坐自平安。肺善声音响，无痰韵更长，肌肤多滑润，大便自寻常。脾善唇滋润，肢温
便不难，脓稠无臭恶，知味且加餐。肾善诚为要，水深火自降，口和无燥渴，小水得稀长。
一恶神昏愦，心烦舌燥干，疮形多紫黑，言语自呢喃。二恶腰身强，睛斜体自寒，疮头
流血水，惊悸是伤肝。三恶形消瘦，脓清臭秽生，疮形多软陷，脾败不知疼。四恶皮肤槁，声嘶
韵不长，痰多兼喘促，鼻动肺将亡。五恶成消渴，昏眠体不伸，形容多惨黑，囊缩肾无根。
六恶身浮肿，肠鸣呕呃频，大肠多滑泻，脏腑并将倾。七恶疮回陷，形如剥鳝同，四肢多逆
冷，污水自流通。
古人治病，虽赖乎药，亦资乎饵。药之所忌，关乎人之死生；饵之宜忌，涉乎病患轻重
。饵者饮食之类也，凡病患姿啖无忌，以致证候因循反复，变态无常，固然不可，而每有断戒几
尽，若一无可啖者，亦不通之甚也。夫饮食之所忌者，以其与所患之证相妨者也。如椒、姜
、面、蛋，煎、炒、爆、炙之属，俱能助壅动热，患阳痈者忌之；瓜果、梨、柿，生冷性寒
之属，俱能损胃伤脾，患阴疽者忌之；鸡、鹅、虾、蟹，海味腥膻之属，俱能动风发痒，患
疮疥者忌之。其余不与证相妨碍者，以及猪肉、腰、肚、海参、老鸭、菜蔬之品，食之无庸
忌也。况大患溃后，气血两虚，脾胃并弱，非有味之物，何以滋补亏伤。若徒恃区区无情之
草木，以为调理，吾知其无病者且不可，而谓其有病者为宜乎？人之维身，止此血气，血气
已虚不为回护，至胃败阴虚，枯阳燔炽，七恶变乱，而成败证者，是谁之咎欤？此乃医家、
病家之积弊，所以不可不亟讲也。至于忍饿伤精，过饱伤气，茹冷成痞等类，又惟在知命者
自爱焉。

古人治病，虽然依赖药物，也依靠饮食调养。药物的禁忌，关系到人的生死；饮食的适宜与禁忌，涉及病患病情的轻重。饮食这一类，凡是病患毫无顾忌地大吃大喝，导致病症迁延反复、变化无常，这固然不行；但有时完全禁止饮食，好像没有什么可以吃的东西，这也是过于不通情理的做法。饮食之所以有禁忌，是因为它们与所患的疾病相互妨碍。例如花椒、生姜、面食、鸡蛋，以及煎、炒、爆、烤等食物，都能助长壅滞和热气，患有阳痈的人应当忌食；瓜果、梨、柿子等生冷性寒的食物，都能损伤胃气和脾脏，患有阴疽的人应当忌食；鸡、鹅、虾、蟹等海味腥膻的食物，都能引动风邪并引发瘙痒，患有疮疥的人应当忌食。其余不与病症相妨碍的，以及猪肉、猪腰、猪肚、海参、老鸭、蔬菜等食品，食用时不需要忌讳。况且大病溃破之后，气血两虚，脾胃同时虚弱，如果没有味美的食物，用什么来滋补亏损的身体？如果仅仅依靠那些无情的草木药物来进行调理，我知道即使是没病的人尚且难以承受，又怎么能说对有病的人是合适的呢？人维持生命，只有这点气血，气血已经虚弱却不加以保护恢复，直到胃气败坏、阴虚火旺，导致七恶证变乱，形成败证，这是谁的过错呢？这是医家和病家长期存在的弊端，所以不能不紧急讨论改正。至于忍饥挨饿损伤精气，过饱损伤气机，吃生冷食物形成痞块等情况，又只有懂得养生之道的人自己去爱护身体了。

In ancient times, treating diseases relied not only on medicine but also on diet. Medicinal taboos concern life and death; dietary appropriateness and taboos affect the severity of the patient's condition. "Diet" refers to food and drink. If patients eat without restraint, causing symptoms to persist, recur, and change unpredictably, this is certainly inadvisable. However, if all foods are strictly forbidden until nothing seems edible, this is also excessively inflexible. Dietary taboos exist because certain foods conflict with the specific disease. For instance, Sichuan pepper, ginger, wheat products, eggs, and foods prepared by frying, stir-frying, popping, or roasting can promote stagnation and generate heat; these should be avoided by patients with Yang abscesses (Yang Yong). Fruits, pears, persimmons, and other raw, cold-natured foods can damage the stomach and spleen; these should be avoided by patients with Yin ulcers (Yin Ju). Chicken, goose, shrimp, crab, and other seafood with fishy odors can stir wind and induce itching; these should be avoided by patients with sores and scabies. Other foods that do not interfere with the condition, as well as pork, pig kidneys, pig tripe, sea cucumber, old duck, and vegetables, need not be restricted. Moreover, after a major illness breaks open, both Qi and Blood are deficient, and the Spleen and Stomach are weak. Without flavorful foods, how can one nourish the deficits? Relying solely on "lifeless" herbal medicines for regulation is insufficient; even healthy people might not tolerate it, let alone the sick. Human life depends on Qi and Blood. If deficient Qi and Blood are not protected and restored, leading to Stomach Qi failure, Yin deficiency with blazing Fire, chaos of the Seven Evils, and ultimate collapse, whose fault is this? This is a long-standing malpractice among physicians and patients, which must be urgently addressed. As for starving oneself damaging Essence, overeating damaging Qi, or consuming cold foods forming masses (Pi), these matters require individuals who understand destiny to care for themselves.
