Buddhists
Vegetarian
Dietary
Practices….
It is shown statistically that Buddhists
are mostly vegetarians. Since the
modern-day vegetarian diet is
primarily cooked with blended oils, it
increases the chance of causing the blood
lipids and cholesterol of vegetarians’
to be higher even higher than nonvegetarians.
We strive to develop
medicines for lowering cholesterol by
clearing and detoxifying the blood,
which is a suitable health remedy for
vegetarians and monks in particular.

insufficient nutrients are the typical
characteristics of the monks’ health
condition caused by the vegetarian
diet over a long period which results in
malnutrition because of lack of protein
and physical exertion during spiritual
practices. Therefore, it is likely that
a huge percentage of vegetarians are
undernourished, and being in a state of
insufficient nutrition will cause reduced
function since the internal waste cannot
be drained out of the body. These are the
two major characteristics of vegetarian
dietary practices. Therefore, the two
effective approaches we now strongly
recommend for the monks are on one
hand to nourish their livers and kidneys
mildly so that the body will eventually
achieve self-cultivation, while to
exterminate the internal body waste. By
implementing the method of reinforcing
and reducing treatment simultaneously
to help reach the standard of physical
balance, which aligns harmoniously with
the theoretical viewpoint of meditation.
It is essential to make the method of
extracting traditional Chinese medicine
reach a certain energy standard.
The extraction of traditional Chinese
medicine must be standardized. This is a
reform that Chinese medicine must deal
with urgently at present, for this concept
must be conveyed. The following

Born in Beijing, China in 1953,
Karashima Isamu (new name after
neutralization to Japanese 95, Aka Shin
Yong ) had studied traditional Chinese
medicine since childhood with his uncle,
who served as a physician at the Royal
Court Hospital and was assigned to
look after the daily regimen of Empress
Dowager Cixi and Emperor Pu Yi’s
towards the end of the Qing Dynasty,
and with no off springs yet leaving many
valuable data on court health, little
Isamu got to learn uncle’s calligraphy.
Since writing with brushes was the
only means of penmanship back then,
naturally, medical prescriptions were
composed in small but proper Chinese
calligraphy artistically. And in practicing
to write with medicinal materials as
samples he familiarized himself with
lots of prescriptions unexpectedly,
he developed the ability to recite the
prescription for medical decoction and
pulse diagnosis until he comprehended
the basic knowledge of Chinese
Medicine such as body acumen, pulse,
acupuncture, and prescriptions.
After graduating from high school
he was drafted to serve in the military,
where he once helps cured a fellow
soldier who suffered from abdominal
pain, with acupuncture treatment. He
later studied at the Fourth Military
Medical University through the Military’s
recommendation owing to his strong
background knowledge in traditional
Chinese medicine. After graduation, he
engaged in clinical work at Beijing Army
General Hospital until the conversion of
workplace to Chinese Medicine Hospital
where he’d regularly commute to his
uncle’s to continue studying Chinese
medicine after work, meanwhile, finished
writing his Imperial Daily Regimen log,
and a book on health and titled Longevity
Fruit soon after the Cultural Revolution
leaving it unpublished.
In 1987, he came to Tokyo, Japan,
to study the Japanese way of regimen for
long life, since Japan has been recognized
as the world’s number one country for
longevity and the aging population.
This provided a good opportunity for
him to further study and start the
building of his business in creating
natural remedies for pursing longevity.
In 1995 he established Longevity Hall
Co., Ltd., (aka Changshoutang Co.,
Ltd.) in Tokyo and attached it with the
Longevity Hall Medical Health Center,
besides Chinese clinical medicine, he
performed research and development
on the royal court secret recipes, which
were passed down to him by his uncle,
and to do formula change for the
current common and difficult diseases,
through repeated clinical trials and
deployment of prescription ratio, he has
developed over 30 plus kinds of health
care products over the years. In 2003
the establishment of Longevity Co., Ltd.,
was founded in Taipei and started the
production of newly developed products.
Different from the traditional production
methods in the past, instead, the new
manufacturing process adopted modern
high-tech extraction methods, so it
enables the product to provide the most
effective results with minimum dosage,
whereby it stands out from other similar
products. Our organization aspires to
develop more and better products,
hoping to make more contributions to
the betterment of mankind.
