There is a close connection between our dietary habits and diseases. Eating does not merely mean satisfying one’s hunger. Like curing diseases, human being’s daily eating is to nurture our lives and to maintain our health. Our dietary habits are pertinent to medical treatments. The ideas that due considerations must be given to what we eat to prevent sickness and that the primary treatment once we have gotten ill is to rectify what we eat are the cornerstone of “Medicine and food have the same origin.” which takes the standpoint of the preventive medicine.

There are not a few number of natural ingredients that can be considered as foods rather than medicines in the natural materials that we deal with. The following table shows typical feed ingredients for use in health foods:
