| Science of health maintenance of traditional Chinese medicine is an important part of traditional Chinese culture, which includes TCM health preservation theory, technology and methods. The sages introduced ancient philosophical thoughts such as the humanization of Confucian nature, the naturalization of Taoist family, yin-yang theory, five elements theory, and essential qi theory into TCM health preservation, and formed a health preservation method based on ancient philosophy. With the acceleration of population aging and the extension of life expectancy, the health of the elderly needs urgent attention, especially the brain health of the elderly, and the concept of "keeping healthy and preventive treatment of disease" should be implemented throughout the life cycle and conform to the laws of nature. This paper advocates applying the concept of " keeping healthy and preventive treatment of disease " in TCM to the elderly population, paying attention to the implementation and development of early preventive measures for brain health of the elderly, advocating "active aging", promoting the healthy development of the elderly brain, and tapping the wisdom and experience of the elderly population, so that the elderly population can live longer, grow old gracefully and serve the country and society to the greatest extent. |
