THE IMPACT OF TRADITIONAL MEDICINE ON IRANIAN CUISINE INGREDIENTS
Journal Title: ASIAN JOURNAL OF NATURAL & APPLIED SCIENCES - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
In far past, Iranian cuisines and traditional medicine were linked together; thus practitioners mentioned the name of many different cuisines along with their benefits and risks in their books and looked up on them from medical point of view. Ancient practitioners used to give recommendations mostly on adding additives in the ingredients of cuisine so that people could get more benefit and less harm of whatever they ate. Those recommendations gradually spread to community and gained people's attention, in a way that still the effect of traditional medicine is evident in many Iranian cuisines. The present paper reviews and investigates the impact of traditional medicine on the ingredients of Iranian cuisines by providing some samples of Iranian's modern eating habits.
