Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of health-care tea beverages, and in particular to a solid beverage with bowel-moistening and laxative effects and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the accelerated pace of modern life and changes in dietary structure, constipation has become a common health problem that plagues many people. Long-term constipation not only causes uncomfortable symptoms such as abdominal distension and abdominal pain, but may also lead to more serious health risks such as hemorrhoids and intestinal dysfunction. Currently, common laxative products on the market mainly include chemical laxatives, dietary fiber supplements, and traditional Chinese medicines. However, although chemical laxatives are quick to act, long-term use can easily lead to dependence and may cause electrolyte imbalances; although dietary fiber supplements are relatively safe, they are slow to take effect and have limited effect on some people; and due to the complex ingredients of traditional Chinese medicines, there may be individual differences and potential side effects.
[0003] In traditional Chinese medicine, many natural plant ingredients are believed to have laxative effects. These ingredients work by promoting intestinal motility, increasing fecal water content, or regulating intestinal flora. However, single plant ingredients often have limited effects, and traditional preparation processes make it difficult to fully release their active ingredients, resulting in poor product efficacy. Furthermore, the existing technology lacks a product that can effectively moisturize the intestines and promote laxative effects while also taking into account safety and taste.
[0004] Therefore, developing a solid beverage based on natural plant ingredients, prepared through scientific proportions and optimized processes, has important practical significance and market value. This invention aims to combine multiple natural ingredients with laxative effects and, through a specific preparation process, fully utilize the synergistic effects of each ingredient, thereby providing a safe, efficient, and easy-to-consume solid beverage solution. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a solid beverage with bowel-moistening and laxative effects and a preparation method thereof.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] The present invention provides a solid beverage with the effect of moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. The solid beverage is prepared from the following components in parts by mass: 70-90 parts of dark tea, 5-9 parts of sea buckthorn powder, 4-8 parts of prune powder, 3-7 parts of snow pear powder, 2-3 parts of passion fruit powder, 1-2 parts of flaxseed powder, 3-5 parts of hemp seed powder, 3-5 parts of Prunus mume seed powder, 2-4 parts of radish seed powder, 0.4-0.8 parts of dandelion root extract, and 2-3 parts of Poria cocos powder.
[0008] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the solid beverage, comprising the following steps:
[0009] (1) Steaming the dark tea leaves and then piling them;
[0010] (2) autoclaving the fermented dark tea to obtain material 1;
[0011] (3) mixing flaxseed powder, hemp seed powder, Prunus mume seed powder, radish seed powder, and Poria cocos powder and subjecting them to autoclaving to obtain material 2;
[0012] (4) mixing the material 1, the material 2 and the bacterial solution, pressing and shaping, blooming, and drying to obtain a tea brick;
[0013] (5) The tea brick is crushed and then mixed with sea buckthorn powder, prune powder, snow pear powder, passion fruit powder, and dandelion root extract to obtain a solid beverage with laxative effects.
[0014] Preferably, the steaming pressure in step (1) is 0.4-0.7 MPa, and the steaming time is 15-25 min.
[0015] Preferably, the fermentation time in step (1) is 12 to 18 hours, and the fermentation core temperature is 55 to 70°C.
[0016] Preferably, the steam pressure of the autoclaving in step (2) is 0.4-0.7 MPa, and the time is 40-60 min.
[0017] Preferably, the steam pressure of the autoclaving in step (3) is 0.4-0.7 MPa, and the time is 15-25 min.
[0018] Preferably, the bacterial solution in step (4) is OD 600 A spore suspension of Eurotium cristatum with a value of 0.5 to 0.7; the mass ratio of the spore suspension of Eurotium cristatum to material 1 is 1:60 to 70.
[0019] Preferably, the temperature of the flower blooming in step (4) is 26-32° C., the humidity is 65-75%, and the time is 8-12 days.
[0020] Preferably, the drying in step (4) is performed until the moisture content of the material is 9-11%.
[0021] Preferably, the pressure for pressing and shaping in step (4) is 20 to 40 MPa.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] Significant laxative effect
[0024] This invention utilizes a scientifically formulated blend of natural ingredients, including dark tea, hemp seed powder, Prunus mume seed powder, and radish seed powder, to synergistically promote intestinal motility, increase stool moisture content, and alleviate constipation symptoms. Experimental data showed that the solid beverage achieved an ink propulsion rate of 66.53% in a mouse model, approaching that of the positive control drug. In clinical trials, the effective rate for habitual constipation patients reached 83%, with an overall effective rate of 100%, far exceeding that of the control group, demonstrating its highly effective bowel-moistening and laxative effects.
[0025] This invention utilizes steaming, piling, autoclaving, and blooming processes to treat dark tea and other raw materials, effectively promoting the release of active ingredients (such as tea polyphenols, dietary fiber, and probiotic metabolites) and enhancing their bioavailability. Fermentation with Eurotium cristatum (the blooming process) further decomposes macromolecules, generating more beneficial metabolites (such as small peptides and organic acids), enhancing intestinal regulation.
[0026] All ingredients of the present invention are raw materials of medicinal and edible origin, such as dark tea, sea buckthorn, prune, snow pear, etc., and do not contain chemical laxative ingredients. Long-term use will not cause dependence or damage intestinal function.
[0027] The invention adds natural fruit powders such as sea buckthorn powder, prune powder, snow pear powder, and passion fruit powder to improve the bitter taste of traditional laxative products, making them more acceptable to consumers. The product is in the form of a solid beverage, easy to brew, and suitable for modern fast-paced lifestyles.
[0028] In addition to moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements, the formula of the present invention also has auxiliary effects such as regulating intestinal flora, promoting digestion, and anti-oxidation, which contributes to overall intestinal health.
[0029] In summary, the present invention provides a safe, efficient, and good-tasting laxative solid beverage with a scientific and reasonable preparation process, significant product efficacy, and broad market application prospects. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0065] Comparative Example 3
[0066] The other methods are the same as those in Example 3, except that no sea buckthorn powder, prune powder, or snow pear powder is added.
[0067] Experimental Example 1
[0068] Male mice weighing 22±2g were selected to construct a slow-transmission constipation mouse model.
[0069] The product obtained by the method of Example 3 was used as the experimental group, and comparative examples 1 to 3 were set as the control group. The method of use was as follows: 2 g of the product was brewed with 100 ml of hot water, filtered to obtain the filtrate, and then the filtrate was allowed to cool before gavage.
[0070] The experimental group and comparative examples 1 to 3 were gavaged with 0.6 ml of the filtrate and 5 mg / kg.BW of loperamide hydrochloride per day for 14 days;
[0071] Positive control group: 2g of Maren Pills were dissolved in 100ml of water as the positive control solution; 0.6ml of the positive control solution was administered to each rat along with 5mg / kg.BW of loperamide hydrochloride daily for 14 days.
[0072] Model control group: distilled water 0.6 ml / animal and loperamide hydrochloride 5 mg / kg.BW were gavaged daily for 14 days.
[0073] Blank control group: distilled water 0.6 ml / rat was gavaged daily for 14 days;
[0074] Ten mice were selected for each experimental group. Daily records of weight changes, food and water intake, health and mental status, and physiological activities were collected. Fecal color and shape, fecal pellet count, fecal water content, and fecal dry weight were also recorded.
[0075] On day 14 of the experiment, mice were gavaged with ink 30 minutes after loperamide hydrochloride / water administration. The mice were then sacrificed 30 minutes later. The intestinal cavity of the mice was then opened to separate the mesentery. The intestinal tube from the pylorus at the top to the ileocecal region at the bottom was cut and placed on a tray. The small intestine was pulled into a straight line. The total length of the small intestine was measured, and the length from the pylorus to the ink front was measured as the ink propagation length. The ink propagation rate was calculated as follows:
[0076] Ink propagation rate (%) = ink propagation length (cm) / total length of small intestine (cm) × 100%.
[0077] Table 1
[0078] Group Total small intestine length (cm) Ink advancement length (cm) Ink advancement rate% Experimental group 47.5 31.3 65.89 Comparative Example 1 46.3 23.4 50.54 Comparative Example 2 46.8 26.3 56.20 Comparative Example 3 45.9 26.7 58.17 Positive control group 47.2 32.0 67.80 Model control group 46.5 18.3 39.35 Blank control group 46.7 34.6 74.09
[0079] From Table 1 and Figure 1 According to the records, compared with the blank control group, the model control group showed a significant increase in defecation time and a decrease in the number of fecal particles; 30 minutes after gavage with ink, the mice were killed and the ink propulsion rates of the two groups of mice were compared. The ink propulsion rate in the small intestine of the mice in the model control group was significantly reduced, indicating that the model was successful.
[0080] The data obtained from the experimental group show that the solid beverage with laxative effect prepared by the method of the present invention has excellent effects of promoting intestinal peristalsis and laxative effect. If some components or steps are discarded, the efficacy of the product will be significantly affected.
[0081] Experimental Example 2
[0082] Experimental method: 120 patients with habitual constipation were randomly selected, half of them were male and half were female, with an average age of 42.6 years. Their clinical manifestations included constipation, difficulty in defecation, hard stool, feeling of incomplete defecation, and long intervals between defecation. They were randomly divided into 4 groups, half of them were male and half were female.
[0083] The product obtained in Example 3 was used as the experimental group. The method of using the product was as follows: use hot water to brew and drink once a day in the morning and evening, 5g each time, 7 days as a course of treatment, and a total of 4 courses of treatment;
[0084] The methods of using the products of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were the same as those of the experimental group.
[0085] During the period of use, patients were surveyed about their bowel movements, and the efficacy of the product was evaluated according to the following efficacy criteria. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0086] Efficacy criteria:
[0087] Markedly effective: Constipation and dyspepsia symptoms completely disappear, bowel movements occur once a day or more, and bowel movements are smooth, and this lasts for more than 7 consecutive days;
[0088] Effective: Constipation and difficult defecation symptoms are significantly relieved, bowel movements are more than 5 times a week, and difficult defecation occurs occasionally;
[0089] Ineffective: The symptoms of constipation and dyspnea were not relieved.

[0092] As shown in Table 2, the product provided by the present invention has an excellent laxative effect, with a total effective rate of 100% and a significant effective rate of 83%. As can be seen from the data obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 3, only the complete formula components and complete preparation method of the present invention can achieve the optimal laxative effect. Abandoning the addition of some components or abandoning some steps will have a significant impact on the efficacy of the product.
[0093] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
