Abstract:
From the perspective of systems science， it is believed that the health status in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is a collection of dynamic changes caused by the continuous mutual movement and exchange of material and energy between the giant system of human beings and the environment， and the accurate identification of this is helpful to understand the common characteristics as well as the development and evolution rules the human body. It is suggested to identify TCM health status based on gut microbiota characteristics， take systems science research method in combination with partial order structure theory to quantify and utilize the information carried by gut microbiota， and use gut microbiota information as a component of micro-parameters to identify TCM health status， thereby supplementing and improving the identification system of TCM health status. The combination of systems science and TCM will further the study of life and provide ideas for studying TCM health status from the perspective of system.
