As a crystallization of ancient Chinese science, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has gradually entered the mainstream international medical system. Chinese and Western medicine have different scientific paradigms. Western medicine is rooted in a simplistic paradigm based on material science, while TCM follows a complex paradigm based on information science. TCM is guided by the principle of "efficacy" and operates under the concepts of "harmony between man and nature" and "harmony between man and virtue". It places the human body's information system at the core and establishes close connections between the doctor and patient, human health and the natural environment, intervention measures, as well as temporal and spatial factors. Through methods such as "syndrome differentiation and treatment", TCM achieves the transformation of information and ultimately aims to maintain health, alleviate ailments, and promote longevity. With the rise of technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, TCM, characterized by "information science", will further achieve high-quality development and ultimately realize the modernization of TCM.
