- 1養生計畫、飲食與運動的一套規定。醫療上也可說療程。
A regimen is a set plan you follow for your body — what you eat, how you move, when you sleep, which medicines you take — because you want to get healthier, , or recover from illness. Doctors, coaches, and health magazines use it. It sounds more serious than routine: a regimen is chosen on purpose and you stick to it. Though actually, English has a close cousin, regime. In careful school use, a regime is a government (often a strict or disliked one), and a regimen is the health or training plan. People still mix them, and some speakers also say diet regime, so you will hear both. If you mean food and exercise, regimen is the safer word.
