从生物化学的角度看中西医的一致性
Consistency of Chinese and western medicine from the perspective of biochemistry

从生物化学的角度来看，中西医在认识上存在一致性：①维生素、必需氨基酸、必需脂肪酸等营养 素必须要通过食物摄取，这与中医的食疗养生理论是一致的；②糖、脂肪、蛋白质必须被消化变成小分子才能吸 收，这与中医的“脾主运化”理论是一致的；③物质代谢作为相互联系的整体，同时又要和机体内外环境的变化 协调一致，这和中医的整体观是一致的；④高等生物体内存在三个层次的代谢调节，即细胞水平的代谢调节、激 素水平的代谢调节和整体水平的代谢调节，这和“天人合一”思想是一致的，同时整体水平的代谢调节，有中枢 神经系统的参与，这和中医的“情志养生”理论是一致的；⑤基因和遗传病与中医的“先天禀赋”理论是一致的。
There is consistency between Chinese medicine and western medicine in the following five aspects of biochemistry: ①vitamins, essential amino acids and essential fatty acids are essential to maintain normal metabolism, which are gained through food. That is in accordance with the food therapy of TCM; ②Large molecules, such as sugar, fat, protein, turn into small molecules through the action of digestive enzymes. The process is consistent with the theory of “spleen governing transportation and transformation” in TCM; ③substance metabolism is interconnected and keep coordination with internal and external environment variations of the body. That is in accordance with the holistic concept of TCM; ④higher organisms regulate metabolism at the cellular level, hormone levels and overall level. That is consistent with the idea of “harmony between the nature and human”. Metabolic regulation at overall level regulates intracellular metabolism by the central nervous system. That is consistent with “emotional health” theory of TCM. ⑤gene and genetic diseases are in accordance with “innate endowment” theory of TCM
