If you haven't checked out Ancient Wisdom, Modern Kitchen yet, considering making it a Christmas present for yourself. This Chinese medicine-themed cookbook is an amazing resource for both TCM practitioners and civilians alike. It was written by two of our favorite teachers. Here are links to their blog and the book itself on Amazon: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Kitchen Blog
From Ancient Wisdom, Modern Kitchen:
According to traditional Chinese medicine, meat and
poultry have therapeutic characteristics in common. They supplement Qi, build
Blood, and stimulate Yang, making them ideal for counteracting fatigue and
quickly replenishing energy following physical exertion, childbirth, of
illness.
Chicken
The most neutral of these meats; it is particularly good
for weakness in the elderly and postpartum recovery. Turkey is similar to
chicken.
Beef
Considered the strongest acting to replenish energy; it
is also particularly good for tendons and bones, as well as the Stomach,
addressing lack of appetite.
Lamb
Considered especially warming; it is particularly good at
dispelling Cold, addressing such conditions as chills, aversion to cold, and
cold extremities.
Pork
The coolest of the meats listed here (although duck is
cooler); it moistens and nourishes the organs, addressing dry cough, dry skin,
and thirst.
Dog
I couldn't resist mentioning this one. Consumed in parts of Asia, dog meat is said to be the hottest of meats.
