Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of beverages, and in particular relates to a beverage with throat-clearing and lung-moistening functions and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the accelerated pace of modern life, high work pressure, unhealthy diet, serious air and other natural environmental pollution, many people are in a sub-healthy state, and high blood pressure, high blood lipids, diabetes, cardiovascular and other diseases seriously threaten people's health. With the improvement of people's living standards, health care is increasingly valued. Functional beverages based on the same origin of medicine and food are accepted and recognized by consumers.

[0003] Chronic pharyngitis is a common disease. The main causes include repeated acute pharyngitis, excessive smoking and drinking, lack of sleep, overwork, overuse of the voice, preference for spicy and irritating foods, or partiality for overcold or overheated foods, which cause long-term and repeated stimulation of the pharynx and destroy the defense function of the pharynx. Living in a polluted environment for a long time, the various harmful substances in the polluted air constantly stimulate and damage the pharyngeal mucosa and lungs. In addition, the high temperature and dry environment also affect the mucus secretion of the pharynx and lungs, dry the mucosa, damage the defense function of the pharynx, and induce pharyngitis and pneumonia. The symptoms of pharyngitis are redness, swelling and pain in the pharynx, difficulty swallowing, a feeling of foreign body blockage, itchy and dry throat, etc.

[0004] Plant beverages refer to beverage products made from plants or plant extracts (except tea and coffee) as raw materials (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds of non-fruit and vegetable plants and juices secreted by bamboo or trees themselves, such as grains, edible fungi, edible algae and ferns, cocoa, chrysanthemum, etc.) through processing or fermentation. According to the national economic statistics classification standards, my country's beverage industry is divided into: carbonated beverage manufacturing, bottled (canned) drinking water manufacturing, tea beverages, fruit and vegetable juice beverages, functional beverages, milk-containing beverages, herbal teas and plant protein beverages, etc. Every year, new beverages emerge in an endless stream, with diverse categories and rich flavors, which dazzles consumers. Plant beverages began to appear in front of the public as a healthy beverage category. It is the continuous exploration and application of healthy plants. Generally obtained from natural plant juices, it meets consumers' demand for natural, organic, green and healthy beverages.
