Reinforcing Spleen Yin Principle Treating Advanced HCC

Lao tzu （ philosopher in the Spring and Autumn Period, founder of Taoism） once wrote in his masterpiece Tao Te Ching ＂All Creatures should bear with Yin and take in Yang, tenderly equilibrize them with Qi, and peace will befallen＂. The philosophy of Yin and Yang is the fundamentals that our Chinese ancestors utilized to reach an understanding of a stable state in all creatures great and small, perceptible and unseen. Prof. Liu Luming has concluded the TCM therapeutic principle ＂nourishing yin and tonifying spleen＂ from experience of treatment for advanced HCC, with the introduction of the theory of Yin and Yang into the therapy and the enrichment of its connotation, thus promoting the efficacy of treatment via TCM medicine for advanced HCC.
