The purpose of this paper is to discuss the application of pre-disease treatment concept in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Based on the definition of pre-disease treatment concept, following Professor Zhou Zhongying's interpretation of pre-disease treatment, and according to the TCM syndrome differentiation mechanism of osteoporosis, the application of pre-disease treatment in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis is discussed from three aspects, prevention of the disease occurrence, prevention of the disease progression, and prevention of the disease from getting worse. Due to its simple, easy, practical, and inexpensive properties, the concept of pre-disease treatment may have broad prospects in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. |
