With the development of high technology and improvements to the environment and living conditions, more and more people realise that health is the most important issue in their lives. Nowadays, the lifespan in some western European countries, such as Germany, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Norway, Italy and the like, reaches 75 or above. However, do you know which country has the highest lifespan in the world? Is it the United States? Is it France? Or is it Russia? No! Did you know that it is Japan. According to the WHO's (World Health Organization) report in the year 2000, the lifespan in Japan has reached 79.

It is well-known that the Japanese food culture originated in China, and Chinese traditional herbal medicine, with a history of thousands of years, has been recognized throughout the world. The "Yin-Yang Balance" and "Five Elements Philosophy" has became the foundation for many people in the pursuit of a longer life.
