Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of functional health foods, and in particular to a functional food composition for improving sleep and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Sleep is an important part of human life, accounting for about one-third of human life activities. Good sleep is beneficial to the body's energy accumulation, brain function maintenance and human immunity improvement. Improving sleep quality is crucial to maintaining human health and improving the quality of life. At present, due to economic development and intensified social competition, the accelerated pace of life, lack of regularity, and psychological problems such as fear of gain and loss have led to an increasing incidence of sleep disorder-related epidemic diseases, mainly leading to skin damage, memory loss, stomach diseases, reduced immunity, and heart-related diseases. Therefore, improving sleep plays a key role in regulating human sub-health, reducing the occurrence of related epidemic diseases, and improving people's quality of life.
[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the causes of sleep disorders are mostly caused by internal injuries such as emotions, diet, or deficiency of qi and blood. Sleep disorders can easily cause the disharmony of qi and blood in the heart, liver, gallbladder, spleen, stomach, kidney, etc., and the imbalance of yin and yang. Therefore, Chinese medicine's understanding of the mechanism of sleep mainly includes the theory of yin and yang, the theory of Yingwei operation, the theory of spirit master, the theory of viscera, etc. The theory of yin and yang mainly refers to the changes in the rise and fall of yin and yang in the human body, which determines the physiological activities of sleep and wakefulness. It corresponds to the changes of yin and yang in nature and the circadian rhythm. The theory of Weiqi operation mainly refers to the different physiological activities of waking and sleeping caused by the periodic changes in the regularity of Weiqi operation. The theory of spirit master, Zhang Jingyue's "Jingyue Complete Book" said: "Sleep is based on yin, and spirit is its master. If the spirit is at peace, you will sleep, and if the spirit is not at peace, you will not sleep." The theory of spirit master sleep believes that sleep and wakefulness are dominated by the activities of spirit, which governs the heart and is related to the five internal organs, that is, sleep is related to the overall functional activity state of the human body. The theory of internal organs, when applied to sleep, is mainly understood from the three levels of the five internal organs' essence, qi, and spirit. There is the biochemical body theory of essence transforming into qi, qi generating spirit, and the physiological control theory of spirit controlling qi, qi transforming into essence. These two hierarchical theories are the mechanisms of life activities. In summary, when the five internal organs are in harmony and the qi and blood of the nutrient and defensive organs are full, and the rise and fall and entry and exit are orderly, the qi will flow smoothly and the spirit will be in good condition, and sleep will be deep and sound at the right time. If the qi transformation activities of the five internal organs are abnormal, pathological products such as phlegm and blood stasis will be produced, which will affect the normal progress of sleep. In fact, the sleep mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine is consistent with the modern sleep theory. Modern scientific research has confirmed that the yin and yang circadian rhythm of the human body is objectively existing. For example, the neuroendocrine hormones in the human body show changes in the yin-yang circadian rhythm; for example, during non-rapid eye movement sleep, the visceral parasympathetic nerve activity is dominant, the muscles of the whole body relax, the heart rate and breathing slow down, the blood pressure decreases, the gastrointestinal motility increases, the basal metabolic rate decreases, and the cerebral blood flow decreases; while during rapid eye movement sleep, the face and muscles have paroxysmal twitches, athetosis, increased gastric acid secretion, and a significant increase in cerebral blood flow and brain oxygen consumption. The sleep mechanism can be summarized as follows: sleep is an overall physiological process dominated by nerve activity, with the yin and yang of the Ying and Wei Qi entering and exiting and circulating as the pivot, and the five internal organs storing essence, transforming Qi, and generating spirit as the basis. They influence each other and are inseparable from each other.
[0004] The sleep mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine mainly grasps the basic characteristics of the laws of life from the perspective of function, overall perspective, and change perspective. It has a strong imprint of ancient Chinese philosophy and forms its own unique theoretical system. However, modern clinical practice often adopts a treatment model that mainly uses drug treatment and supplements psychological and behavioral intervention. At present, the main chemical drugs for the clinical treatment of sleep disorders are barbiturates, benzodiazepines, non-benzodiazepines, etc. These drugs take effect quickly and have clear mechanisms of action, but long-term use is prone to side effects such as residual effects, amnesia effects, and withdrawal effects. In contrast, traditional Chinese medicine improves sleep disorders by following the theory of traditional Chinese medicine differentiation of syndromes, and restores the body to normal by adjusting the internal organs, qi, blood, yin and yang.
[0005] At present, non-drug health foods have become the first choice for more and more people with insomnia. There are also many patent reports on health products related to improving sleep. Most of them are prepared from more than a dozen or twenty Chinese medicinal materials. The methods are complicated and the guiding theories of traditional Chinese medicine are unclear. For example: Application No. CN202110149705.X discloses a method for preparing a Chinese medicine composition for improving sleep and its preparation. The invention emphasizes the content limits of spinosaponin, jujuboside A and jujuboside B. CN202110751138.5 discloses a health tea with the effect of improving sleep. The hot water brewing steps are cumbersome and the effective ingredients are not fully utilized.
[0006] Food ingredients with medicinal and edible properties are both food and Chinese medicinal materials. The present invention adopts all natural food resources with medicinal and edible properties to formulate a product for improving sleep based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. The consumption of the product does not require changing traditional eating habits, and can meet safety and health needs. It is not easy to develop drug resistance and dependence. It is a sustainable conditioning model product that is particularly suitable for sleep disorders. Summary of the invention

[0052] Effect experiment example:
[0053] Volunteer selection criteria: Volunteers have at least 2 of the following characteristics and manifestations: long time to fall asleep, frequent awakening, unstable sleep or inability to fall asleep after waking up; early awakening in the morning, dreaminess, etc. According to the selection criteria, from January 2021 to October 2021, a total of 120 volunteers aged 17-65 years were screened, including 60 females and 60 males. 60 volunteers (20 volunteers for each embodiment, randomly assigned) used the composition of Examples 1-3, and 60 volunteers (20 volunteers for each comparative example, randomly assigned) used Comparative Examples 1-3, and their use effects were evaluated.
[0054] Efficacy judgment criteria: A self-control design method was adopted, and various sleep data were detected by Huawei smart bracelets, which were recorded and collected through sensors. The principle is: Huawei smart bracelets use TruSleep scientific sleep detection technology, which extracts normal sinus rhythm interval sequences and respiratory signals from heart rate signals, and uses Hilbert-Huang transform technology to analyze the coherence and cross-spectral power of these two signals to generate the cardiopulmonary coupling dynamics spectrum during sleep, which can accurately analyze the various stages of sleep, including deep sleep, light sleep, rapid eye movement and wakefulness, and can determine the time and proportion of each sleep stage, so as to accurately portray the sleep structure; finally, the score was calculated by using the cardiopulmonary coupling algorithm (CPC) of Harvard Medical School, where scores of 85 points or above were considered significant, 80-85 points were considered effective, and below 80 points were considered ineffective.
[0055] Usage: Take one capsule of the composition of the present invention one hour after dinner every day. One month is a course of treatment. After the effect is obvious, it is recommended to take 2 more courses of treatment to consolidate the body's physique and enhance immunity.
[0056] Effect of use: Sleep mainly includes deep sleep, light sleep, rapid eye movement and wakefulness. Deep sleep is called "golden sleep" and is the most important part of sleep. After entering deep sleep, the cortical cells of the brain will have a full rest. This measure plays a key role in restoring energy, relieving fatigue and enhancing immunity. Through self-comparison before and after and the evaluation results sent to the background cloud service computing center by the mobile phone APP, it is effective: more than 90% of users, effective: more than 80-90% of users, ineffective: maintain the original status (lower than more than 80% of users). Through the sleep structure diagram obtained by the Huawei smart bracelet detection, it is found that the composition of the present invention mainly increases the proportion of deep sleep time by 35%-45%, and the continuity score of deep sleep is 80-85 points, which can significantly improve the quality of sleep.
