Chinese say rhinitis and sinusitis are caused by the Cold in the body,
and beef can insert some Heat to cure this Cold. :P
Is that true? How does western medical theory have a say?

Thank you.

I would guess that no western theories hold that beef
can cure rhinitis and sinusitis.  I eat a lot of beef
and still suffer.

Yes it might help if people were generally deficient in fat and protein.   That
might have been true in China at least atone point, but today in the Western
countries people have an excess of fat and protein, not a deficiency.

China is cold and many people are too thin to fight the cold.
Some fat will give them enough heat insulation and backup
heat source.
