Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of compound prescription, and particularly relates to a heat-clearing and dryness-moistening composition prepared from polygonatum and mint and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the traditional field of Chinese medicine, heat-clearing and dryness-moistening preparations are widely used to improve symptoms such as dry mouth, sore throat, cough and little sputum caused by autumn dryness damaging body fluid and lung and stomach heat. Although the classic prescription represented by Sangxintang (Dissertation on Warm Diseases) has certain curative effect, the addition amount of sucrose is as high as 30-50%, which is not suitable for people with diabetes and sugar control. And the commercially available solid granules such as Jukuanrunzai Granules also cause more than 40% loss of volatile components such as menthol due to high-temperature spray drying.
[0003] As a core medicinal material for nourishing yin and moistening dryness, polygonatum odoratum is prone to Maillard reaction and browning at a temperature higher than 85 DEG C. The retention rate of menthol in the volatile oil of mint is less than 60% under open boiling conditions. More importantly, the conventional decoction process is difficult to meet the stability requirements of tremella polysaccharide and taraxacum mongolicum lev. For example, in the prior art, single normal pressure concentration method is used, which easily leads to a degradation rate of more than 32% of tremella acidic polysaccharide, and cannot effectively reconcile the stability conflict between organic acid (pH is about 2.9) of Fructus mume and bitter almond glycoside (optimum pH is 6.5) of almond. Moreover, in the prior art, volatile oil is embedded by beta-cyclodextrin, but the additional embedding agent causes a 27% decrease in the hardness of the paste, which affects the texture of the product.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a heat-clearing and dryness-moistening composition preparation method which can meet the stability requirements of multiple active ingredients and realize low sugar and high bioavailability. SUMMARY

[0017] 2. In the composition, peppermint and taraxacum are added, menthol can make TRPM8 receptor transiently cool down, and taraxacum chlorogenic acid can inhibit the NF-κB inflammatory pathway, and after combination, the effect of clearing heat and regulating is achieved.
[0018] 3. In the preparation process: by the way of post-decocting, the loss of volatile oil can be greatly reduced. At the same time, by vacuum concentration, the heat-sensitive material (such as polygonatum multiflorum) can be prevented from browning. At the same time, by making the final product into a paste, the natural preservation time can be prolonged without adding preservatives, and the eating process is safer. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
