Surely you have seen those documentaries where you can see those Chinese stores where they sell animal parts and fill the functions of a drugstore and doctor at the same time. In these places you will often times see the walls covered in exquisite wooden boxes of signaled with inscrutable Chinese ideograms and when opened have the most exotic – and sometimes horrendous – things one can imagine. Insects, reptiles, fish, animal organs, human parts, and a great amount of vegetables, all dried to drink in infusions or add to foods.

Recently it has been seen how harmful these customs can be for some animals. China has a big population. The advance of its society toward economic positions of prevalence worsens the situation.

The Chinese believe in the transference of the qualities of the object they eat to those who consume it. For them in the matter there is some energy that passes on to those that eat it such as the characteristics they see in the animal or plant.

For Chinese philosophy, the topic of energy is in everything. As you know the Chinese divide things into Ying and Yang, two main objects that together, form the universe. Yin is the night, the darkness, the moon and woman. Yang is the light, the sun, the birth or beginning of things, and man.
