Health Preservation of TCM is the scope of preventive medicine. Compared with other preventive medicine, it has a long history with systematic theory and various ways. Moreover, it also has simple,effective,inexpensive and tested effects, so it has great advantages over other methods.lt has three basical features, overall Health Preservation, Health Preservation based on constitution distinction and ending one's nature life span. The important principle of Health Preservation of TCM is Health Preservation based on constitution distinction(HPCD).On the basis of literature reseach, the paper discusses the significance, theoretical basis, and its proper application of HPCD.HPCD is based on inspection auscultation-and-olfaction,inquiry,pulse-taking and other means of checkup to collect the history and current status information in form and function of psychology and physiology on human body and by means of through analyzing, synthesizing to identify constitution state of human's zang-fu organs, qi-blood, yin and yang etc, it synthesizes and identifies the relevant actual multi-aspects living conditions with human constitution and then formulate and implement targeted Health Preservation programs. One of the basic principles of Tradition Chinese Medicine is people-oriented, adopting different ways to different people, Health Preservation based on constitution distinction as well. It is comprehensive,integrated and personal and further highlights the distinction and pertinency of various aspects. It not only concentrates on constitution, but also integrates with a variety of factors related to the human body. Ideas and methods of constitution distinction are so comprehensive,precise and clear that Health Preservation of application is more operational and practical, and easier to grasp and promote.During the course of HPCD,constitution distinction is the premise of Health Preservation, and Health Preservation is the target for constitution distinction.The basic theories for Health Preservation based on constitution distinction are constitution theory of TCM and theory of Health Preservation people-oriented of TCM. The main issues of constitution theory of TCM include characteristics,formation,classification and application of constitution.Health Preservation based on constitution distinction is the combination of constitution theory of TCM and Health Preservation of TCM.HPCD includes two major parts:constitution identification and development of Health Preservation programs. The constitution identification can be divided into three steps:firstly, to distinguish diseases and non-disease; secondly, to distinguish constitution characteristics from yin and yang; thirdly, to distinguish the specific constitution characteristics of different people.The development of Health Preservation programs can be set through three steps: firstly, to set Health Preservation goals;secondly, to choice Health Preservation approaches; thirdly,to develop Health Preservation programs. The paper puts forward corresponding Health Preservation ways and a program with examples.Meanwhile,through inspecting a large number of literatures on the constitution features of four character people, namly the senior,middle-age,children and women, the paper analysizes their constitution characteristics on the constitution classification theory of TCM. That is, the senior constitution should be focused on phlegm,blood stasis,deficiency,the middle-age must be recognized on stasis and heat,the children should be considered on lung,spleen,kidney and the woman should be considered by menstruation,pregnancy,born.
