安身立命的根本，必须依靠饮食；救治疾病的途径，唯有凭借药物。不懂得饮食适宜原则的人，不足以保全生命；不了解药性的人，算不上真正懂得养生之道（注：原文此处有缺漏，结合上下文“必至霍乱”推断为不知药性/食宜之害）。夏至以后、秋分之前，不要进食肥腻浓味、酥油乳酪等食物，这样就没有其他忧虑了。所以老年人多病，大多是因为年轻时在春夏季节贪凉，食用过于冰冷的饮食，以及鱼类、生菜、生肉等腥冷之物，这些大多损害人体健康，应当断绝食用。只有乳酪、酥油、蜂蜜，应当加热后温服，这对老年人大有益处。如果突然大量食用，也会导致腹胀、腹泻和痢疾，应逐渐少量食用。每天日常应当吃清淡的食物，不要吃太咸的东西。
【方剂】牛乳法（出自《圣惠方》）：凡是牛乳性质平和，能补益血脉，滋养心脏，促进肌肉生长，使人身体强健、皮肤润泽，面色光亮，精神不衰。因此作为子女，应当常备牛乳作为日常饮食，一天都不能缺少，始终让老人尽情享用直至满足。这种食物的滋补效果远胜于肉类。
钟乳散方：钟乳（一斤，上好的，细研）、人参（三两，去芦头）、甘草（五两，炙至微赤，锉碎）、熟地黄（三两）、薯蓣（六两）。将以上药材捣罗为散，每次服用二钱匕，用温水调服，不拘时候。
乌麻散方：具有抗衰老、驻颜的功效。用黑芝麻任意多少量，用水拌匀，不要太湿，蒸至热气透遍，在阳光下晒干。再蒸再晒，往返九次。干后捣碎，去掉杂质。
大凡刚开始怀孕时，四肢沉重，食欲不佳，脉象顺适，这是将要受孕的征兆。经过两三日后，就会觉得饮食不通畅，出现偏嗜或厌恶某些食物，这叫做“恶食”。到了三个月以上，呕吐逆反的症状都会加重，身体虚弱不能自持。如果有上述先兆，就根据此方法进行饮食调养。既然获得了食物的营养，体质增强，胃气旺盛，就足以养育胎儿，使母子平安健康。
【方剂】鲤鱼汤方：治疗妊娠期间胎脏壅热，不能进食，心神烦躁闷乱。
配方：鲤鱼（一条，长一尺的，按食用方法处理）、生姜（一两，切片）、豆豉（一合）、葱白（一把，去须，切片）。

The foundation of preserving one's health lies in diet, while the way to cure diseases relies solely on medicine. Those who do not understand the appropriateness of food are insufficient to preserve their lives; those who do not understand the nature of drugs are not considered [to know how to preserve life]. (Note: The original text has a gap here; based on context "must lead to cholera-like symptoms", it infers the harm of not knowing drug/food properties.) After the Summer Solstice and before the Autumn Equinox, one should avoid consuming rich, fatty, strong-flavored foods, butter, cheese, and yogurt, so that no other worries will arise. Therefore, the reason why the elderly suffer from many illnesses is mostly due to seeking coolness during spring and summer when they were young, eating and drinking overly cold items, as well as fish, raw vegetables, and raw meat—these cold and raw foods often damage the human body and should be discontinued. Only milk, butter, ghee, and honey should be warmed before consumption, which is highly beneficial for the elderly. If consumed suddenly in large quantities, however, it may also cause abdominal distension, diarrhea, and dysentery; thus, it should be eaten gradually in small amounts. Daily diet should be light and bland; avoid overly salty foods.
[Formula] Cow Milk Method (from *Shenghui Fang*): Cow milk has a neutral nature and can nourish the blood vessels, benefit the heart, promote muscle growth, make the body strong and healthy, skin lustrous, face radiant, and spirit unyielding. Therefore, as children, one should always provide it as a regular food, never lacking it for a day, ensuring the elderly enjoy it to satisfaction. The nourishing effect of this food far exceeds that of meat.
Zhongru Powder Formula: Zhongru (Stalactite) (1 jin, high quality, finely ground), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) (3 liang, remove rhizome), Gancao (Licorice Root) (5 liang, honey-fried until slightly red, chopped), Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) (3 liang), Shuyu (Dioscorea Rhizome) (6 liang). Sift the above herbs into powder. Take 2 qianbi each time, mixed with warm water, at any time.
Wuma Powder Formula: Has anti-aging and complexion-preserving effects. Use Sesamum indicum L. (Black Sesame Seed) in any amount, mix evenly with water (not too wet), steam until heat penetrates thoroughly, then dry in the sun. Steam and dry repeatedly, nine times in total. After drying, pound and remove impurities.
Generally, at the beginning of pregnancy, the limbs feel heavy, appetite is poor, and the pulse is smooth; this is a sign of impending conception. After two or three days, one will feel indigestion or aversion to certain foods, known as "aversion to food" (Eshi). By the third month or later, vomiting and nausea become severe, and the body becomes too weak to support itself. If such prodromal signs appear, adjust diet according to this method. Once nutritional intake improves, physical strength increases, and stomach qi becomes robust, it is sufficient to nourish the fetus, ensuring the safety and health of both mother and child.
