Beginners should not study the Huangdi Neijing too early

衡阳唐亚军

The  Huangdi Neijing covers a wide range of content, including not only medicine but also ancient Chinese philosophy, astronomy, meteorology, phenology, biology, geography, mathematics, sociology, psychology, phonetics, and other fields of knowledge. Beginners of traditional Chinese medicine, such as first-year students, are taught 1+1, which can be equal to 2 or not. This will lead to confusion in logical thinking  chaotic. So, for beginners, especially scholars from outside China,  study the  Huangdi Neijing too early is like pulling out seedlings to promote growth, without any benefits, and instead can easily confuse the learner's mind and lead them into an unknown state.
