Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of health foods, and particularly to a Chinese herbal oral paste for conditioning phlegm-dampness constitution and a processing method thereof.


BACKGROUND

In Classification and Determination of Constitution in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the China Association of Chinese Medicine classifies body constitutions of the human body into nine types, i.e., yin-yang harmony constitution, yang deficiency constitution, yin deficiency constitution, qi deficiency constitution, damp-heat constitution, phlegm-dampness constitution, qi depression constitution, blood stasis constitution, and allergic constitution, most of which are sub-healthy states.


The phlegm-dampness constitution manifests phlegm-dampness retention caused by phlegm formation due to dampness accumulation when the functions of internal organs (zang and fu) of the human body dysfunction, which easily leads to disordered transportation and transformation of qi (vital energy)-blood and body fluid, and water and dampness stagnation, accumulation of dampness and phlegm in phlegm wetness, usually showing obesity, fat abdomen, chest distress, excessive phlegm, drowsiness liability, heavy body and unpleasantness, addiction to greasy food and pure liquor, swelling tongue, and white greasy tongue fur, and is mostly caused by invasion of coldness and dampness, improper diet, inborn endowment, oldness and long illness, and lack of exercises, with different symptoms usually due to different parts of the phlegm-dampness retention. The tendency of morbidity is: consumptive thirst, stroke, chest obstruction and so on, with poor adaptability to plum rains and damp environments. An important treatment is eliminating dampness and phlegm, together with nursing and improving the phlegm-dampness constitution to prevent occurrence of the phlegm-dampness diseases.


Such sub-healthy constitution as phlegm-dampness constitution belongs to chronic diseases and has a relatively long disease course, and requires a long-term medication and gradual conditioning, in order to achieve the effects of eliminating dampness and phlegm. The dosage forms commonly used in the traditional Chinese medicine are decoctions and Chinese patent medicine such as pills and the like. Decoctions usually have relatively good efficacy, but the administration thereof is complicated, and the taste thereof is poor, if the decoctions need to be administered for a long time, it is difficult for a patient to keep taking the decoctions. Moreover, the efficacy of the pills is relatively poor.


It is mentioned in the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor that “the superior physician prevents illness, the mediocre physician attends to impending illness, and the inferior physician treats actual illness”, wherein the phrase “prevent illness” means taking corresponding measures to prevent the occurrence and development of diseases. The body constitution determines the health of people and determines the susceptibility to diseases. It is believed in the traditional Chinese medicine that since the human beings live in the natural world, physiological functions of the human body usually change with seasons, that is, “correspondence between man and nature”. Winter is the season when the human body “stores energies”, and appropriate nourishment can enhance the constitution, ward off diseases and strengthen the body, and prolong life, that is, conditioning in winter or nourishing in winter commonly mentioned in the traditional Chinese medicine. For the sub-healthy population with phlegm-dampness constitution, to choose a solid oral paste with a higher drug concentration and good taste, and being convenient to carry is more adapted to requirements of modern people.

Notes:


compared with the blank control group, **P < 0.01, and compared with the model group, ##P < 0.01






It can be seen from Table 2 that the experiment results of the scoring of the biological representation of the rats of various groups show that the rats of the blank control group were lively and active, and quick-witted; the rats of the model group seemed tired and lazy, weary in spirit, sluggish in action, obese in body, gradually took less food, with slightly white tail and nose lacking lustre, loose and stinky excrement, of which the score of biological representation was significantly increased compared with the blank control group (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the rats of the 5 experiment groups of the present application reacted slightly slowly, with reduced locomotor activities, slightly loose and soft skin, reddish tail and nose lacking lustre; dry and shaped-up excrement, of which the score of biological representation was significantly decreased (P<0.01).


5. Detection of Serum TC, TG, HDLC, LDLC, and VLDLC


Blood was taken from the ventral abdominal artery, and after standing for 4 h, underwent centrifugation at 6000 rpm, and then the serum was taken after 5 mins, and subjected to automatic biochemical detection for five indexes, namely, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDLC), and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDLC).


The experiment results show that compared with the blank control group, the rats of the model group had significantly increased contents of serum TC, HDLC, LDLC, and VLDLC and significantly decreased TG. Compared with the model group, the five experiment groups of the present application have significantly decreased TC, HDLC, LDLC, and VLDLC and significantly increased TG.


The experiment results show that the Chinese herbal oral paste of Embodiments 1-5 of the present application have good conditioning and curing effects to the phlegm-dampness syndromes.


It should be indicated that Embodiments 1-5 of the present invention are merely some of the embodiments for implementing the technical solutions of the present invention, and should not be construed as the scope of protection of the present invention merely limited to the above five embodiments, and a person skilled in the art can make further improvements on the basis of the present invention without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention.


For example, the components of the Chinese herbal oral paste of the present invention are not limited to those listed in respective embodiments, while other Chinese herbal medicines also can be added, to further perfecting the drug formulation of the Chinese herbal oral paste of the present invention.


For another example, in the process of the processing method for the Chinese herbal oral paste of the present invention, in the concentration step, when the drug juice is concentrated to the vegetarian paste, a wild jujube shell powder is added evenly with stirring. The wild jujube shell powder above is obtained by sufficiently smashing and grinding the wild jujube shell, with a particle size of 100-400 micrometers. The wild jujube shell powder has the main components of cellulose and lignin, has quite advanced pores in the powder particles, and is a natural drug carrier. When added to the Chinese herbal oral paste, the pores inside the wild jujube shell powder will be filled up with the drug components of the Chinese herbal oral paste. Since the cellulose and lignin cannot be digested or absorbed in vivo, they can serve an effect of sustained release, and a small part of the drug components stored in the wild jujube shell powder can be released continuously, so that the drug is present in the digestive system for an extended period of time. The phenomenon that the drug components are wasted as the digestive system cannot absorb a large amount of drug components within a short period of time will not occur. The wild jujube shell powder is added in an amount of 1%-3% of the gelatin type drugs, and should not be used in an excessive amount, because the excessive amount, on one hand, will deteriorate the form quality of the oral paste, and on the other hand, will increase the burdens of the intestines and stomach as it cannot be absorbed by the human body.


The descriptions above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, which are not used to limit the present invention. For a person skilled in the art, the present invention may have various changes and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements etc. within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall all be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
