NovelEnglishChapter 2280 The Theory of Herbal Cuisine
Since no one was talking at the dining table, Matthew took advantage of the opportunity to explain to Casper
and the several other disciples from hidden sects, "The theory of herbal cuisine can be divided into two
categories. The first one is edible medicinal cuisine. We incorporate herbal ingredients such as wolfberry, ginger,
and ginseng into our daily cooking. Although this method is effective, the results are not very significant.
The other type is what alternative medicine practitioners call herbal cuisine. Herbal cuisine combines the
principles of alternative medicine, culinary arts, and therapeutic care. By strictly following herbal cuisine recipes,
we combine the essence from medicinal herbs with food ingredients. Then, we use Cathay's unique cooking
techniques to combine the two, creating a dish that harmonizes the color, aroma, taste, shape, and medicinal
properties.

We use medicine to enhance the taste of food while the food conceals medicinal properties. The dishes cooked
with this combination are delicious and beneficial for health."
Suddenly, Casper interrupted and asked, "Mr. Larson, if what you said is true, wouldn't these food ingredients be
unnecessary?"
He wasn't just nitpicking. After all, if the essence of the herbs had been extracted, wouldn't it be more
convenient to consthem directly? Why would they need to go through the process of cooking? "Mr.
Gallagher, you have misunderstood the meaning. Alternative medicine emphasizes the five elements and five
flavors. Sour enters the liver, bitter enters the heart, sweet enters the spleen, spicy enters the lungs, and salty
enters the kidneys. These ingredients are not just delicious food but also medicinal catalysts. Furthermore, both
alternative and conventional medicine theories state that medicine has 'toxicity.' After combining these
ingredients, the harmful toxins in the medicinal herbs will naturally be expelled from the body along with the
food."
As Casper listened to Matthew's explanation, his eyes becbrighter. "Mr. Larson, what is the core of this
theory?"
At that moment, Matthew's expression turned serious. His conversation with Casper was not just a simple
explanation. It was also a clash of cultures between alternative and conventional medicine. After a brief silence,
Matthew suddenly put down his utensils and said solemnly, "Medicine and food have the sorigin, and
diseases have the scauses. The patient is his best medicine!" Once those words were spoken, the disciples
from the hidden sects, who were listening with great interest, also fell into deep thought as if they were savoring
the meaning behind what was said. As for Casper, his whole body trembled. "The patient is his best medicine!"
While repeating these words, he suddenly bececstatic. Those few simple sentences struck his ears like
thunder and addressed the long-standing problem troubling him. The Drioca Prince's illness was mainly caused
by nerve damage in various parts of his body. Originally, they planned to perform surgery despite the risks, but
even with nanoscale medical devices, the surgery was still not feasible.

Not only was the risk extremely high, but even if the surgery was successful, the damaged nerves would cause
him to becpartially paralyzed or render him unconscious forever. Casper would have refused if it were an
ordinary patient, but the patient's father was a national leader and the major investor in the new market
Gallagher Medical Group had just entered the clinical beauty industry.
If he failed to handle the Drioca Prince's situation well and the other party withdrew their investment, his
company would be at risk of bankruptcy due to the disruption of a trillion-dollar funding chain. Of course, crises
and opportunities go hand in hand. If they could cure the prince, wouldn't securing additional investments be as
easy as pie?
Matthew's theory of herbal cuisine gave Casper a completely new inspiration. Perhaps the prince's condition did
not require any surgery. Wouldn't it be better to use herbal cuisine to treat the illness?
With that in mind, Casper looked at Matthew with burning eyes and asked, "Mr. Larson, we have a patient in our
hospital whose condition is extremely rare and difficult to cure. | was hoping you could givesguidance."
