这是个很大话题，曾有几位网友的贴子可以借鉴。想要多了解，建议读 Whole：Rethinking the Science of Nutrition。
这本书能让你明白为什么大部分西药（尤其是治疗慢性病类）为什么不能长期服用？而有的草本药看似有效成份不多但对疾病却有很好疗效。
这本书还能让人了解现行的所谓科学分析方法为什么不适用于分析草本药？为什么经过千辛万苦耗资巨大的被所谓科学验证了西药还能频频因为其副作用被淘汰？
以上内容在书 Whole 的第一部分，而下面的节选是关于书的第二、第三部份。
Part II looks at the reason it's so hard for so many not to just accept, but even notice, the health implications of this research: the mental prison, or paradigm, in which Western science and medicine operate , which makes it impossible to see obvious facts lies outside it. For many reasons ,we now operate under a paradigm that looks for truth only in the smallest details, while entirely ignoring the big picture. The popular expression "can't see the forest for the trees"make the point well ,except that there's much more at stake here than just trees and forests. Morden science is so detail obessed that we can't see the forest for the vascular cambium and secondary pholem and so on. There's nothing wrong with looking at the details( I spent most of my reaserch career doing just that); the trouble occurs when we start denying that there is a big picture,and stubbornly insist that the narrow we see, heavily laden with our own biases and experience, is all that is.

The fancy word for this obsession with minutiae is reductionism. And reductionism comes with its own seductive logic, so that people laboring under its spell can't see that there's another way to look at the world. To reductionist, all other worldviews are unscientific, superstitious, sloppy, and not worthy of attention. All evidence gathered by non-reductionist means-presuming that reaserch can get funding in the first place-is ignored or suppressed.
Part III looks at the other side of this equation : the econnomic forces that reinforce and exploit this paradigm for their own self - interest as they chase financial success. These forces completely manipulated the public conversation about health and nutrition to suit their bottom line. We'll look at the many ways money affects thousands of small decisions that add up to a big impact on what you, the public, hear(and don't hear)and thus believe about health and nutrition.
