There are many steps we can take to achieve good health and longevity. Are there any ancient prescriptions that can help people resist aging?

A research team from the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology, National Taiwan University, identified a list of traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) with longevity-extending and anti-aging properties from TCM pharmacopeia such as “Compendium of Materia Medica,” “Invaluable Prescriptions for Ready Reference,” “Divine Husbandman’s Classic of Materia Medica,” and “Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon.”
