Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of Chinese medicine extracts, and in particular to a plant extract for improving physiological slow intestinal motility and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The causes of slowed intestinal motility, that is, difficulty in defecation or reduced frequency of defecation, are complex and varied. With age, the elasticity of intestinal muscles and nerve function of the elderly may decrease, resulting in slower intestinal motility. During pregnancy, pregnant women may also experience slower intestinal motility due to changes in hormone levels, pressure from the uterus on the intestine, and changes in diet and lifestyle. White-collar workers have reduced intestinal activity due to long periods of sitting at work and lack of exercise, which in turn affects intestinal motility. An unbalanced diet, insufficient intake of fiber and water, and excessive intake of fat and processed foods are also important factors in constipation. In addition, certain drugs, including analgesics, antidepressants, antibiotics, iron supplements, etc., may interfere with normal intestinal motility. Chronic diseases, such as thyroid dysfunction, diabetes, colitis, etc., may also lead to slower intestinal motility. Psychological factors, such as stress, anxiety, depression, etc., may also have a negative impact on intestinal function, thereby slowing down intestinal motility.

[0003] To address the problem of slowed intestinal motility, the main treatment currently used is drugs, including chemical drugs and Chinese herbal compound preparations. Stimulant laxatives and osmotic laxatives are effective in the short term, but tolerance varies among individuals. Long-term and frequent use may lead to dependence and side effects, and long-term use may weaken the natural bowel movement function of the intestines, resulting in poor therapeutic effects. Lubricating drugs such as enema are also inconvenient to use for a long time. Traditional Chinese medicine usually uses dialectical treatment and prescription decoction to treat constipation, but there are problems such as poor taste of oral drugs, large dosage, complex ingredients, and insufficient stability of efficacy, which limits its scope of application. Acupuncture and massage treatments also have limitations such as cumbersome treatment process and inconvenient application.

[0004] Therefore, developing a product with a simple formula, clear active ingredients, accurate content, definite efficacy, and easy to take and carry is an issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the current market demand. Summary of the invention
