Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of compound essential oil technology, and specifically relates to an anti-nasal congestion essential oil composition and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine aromatherapy has a long history, with records of fumigation, moxibustion, and the brewing of fragrant wines dating back to the Shang Dynasty. It was an important adjunct therapy for respiratory diseases in ancient times, and herbal essential oils are widely used in this field. Besides being natural, safe, highly active, and effective, herbal essential oils are composed of small molecules, typically ranging from tens to hundreds of Daltons—approximately 1000 times smaller than human cells, belonging to the nanoscale. Their lipid-soluble and dual-mode properties allow them to pass through cell membranes, making them highly permeable. After transdermal application, they enter the bloodstream within seconds to minutes. Furthermore, herbal essential oils are metabolized extremely quickly, being eliminated from the body in just a few hours.
[0003] Nasal congestion is a common symptom that makes breathing difficult, especially in children, where it can disrupt sleep and, in severe cases, even affect intellectual development and overall physical health. Currently, products on the market for relieving nasal congestion mainly fall into the following categories: chemical drugs (such as ephedrine-containing nasal drops), which are fast-acting but long-term use can easily lead to drug-induced rhinitis; physical therapy products (such as saline nasal irrigation), which are safe but slow-acting; and common essential oil products, which are mostly single-ingredient (such as eucalyptus or peppermint) or simply compounded, lacking comprehensive efficacy and multiple synergistic effects such as anti-infection, mucosal repair, and immune regulation. Some products overuse ingredients like peppermint, camphor, or high concentrations of thymol, irritating the nasal mucosa of children and sensitive individuals. Furthermore, they lack a holistic view from Traditional Chinese Medicine, failing to consider the pathogenesis of nasal congestion as "Yang deficiency and cold stagnation, turbid evil obstructing the nasal passages," and lacking the compatibility design of warming Yang, resolving dampness, and guiding the medicine along the meridians.
[0004] Some existing technologies attempt to use traditional Chinese medicine essential oils for nasal congestion relief. For example, common Asarum essential oil, without safrole removal treatment, poses potential risks of hepatotoxicity and mucosal irritation. Furthermore, it lacks systematic guidance based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine principles of compatibility, resulting in weak synergistic effects among its components. Moreover, these are mostly pure oils, with a greasy texture and slow absorption, making it difficult to simultaneously carry water-soluble active ingredients and achieve the synergistic delivery of both oil and water effects. Therefore, developing a nasal congestion relief product specifically for sensitive populations such as children and the elderly, offering both rapid nasal clearing and long-lasting nourishment, while being safe, gentle, and scientifically formulated, has become a pressing technical challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-nasal congestion essential oil composition and its preparation method, aiming to solve at least one technical problem in the background art.
[0006] The object of this invention is achieved in the following manner: To better implement this research project, the present invention provides an anti-nasal congestion essential oil composition, the essential oil composition comprising a compound essential oil and an amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition; The compound essential oil contains the following essential oil components in parts by weight: Magnolia flower essential oil 1-15 parts; Bay leaf essential oil 1-10 parts; 1-8 parts of linalool thyme essential oil; Tonka essential oil 1-8 parts; Asarum essential oil 1-5 parts; The amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 50-80 parts rosemary hydrosol; Montanov L 1-7 copies; 1-10 parts of Lactobacillus fermentation lysate; Among them, the Magnolia biondii essential oil was obtained from the dried flower buds of Magnolia biondii using supercritical CO2 extraction.

The linalool thyme essential oil was obtained by steam distillation extraction from the above-ground parts (stems, leaves, and flowers) of the entire thyme plant harvested at the early flowering stage. The essential oil of *Linglingxiang* was obtained from the whole herb, including roots, of *Linglingxiang* using critical CO2 extraction. Asarum essential oil was obtained from the rhizome of Asarum heterotropoides using supercritical CO2 extraction, followed by stepwise decompression removal of safrole to obtain the Asarum essential oil. The compound essential oil and the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition are mixed evenly to obtain the essential oil composition.
[0007] Preferably, the compound essential oil comprises the following essential oil components in parts by weight: Magnolia flower essential oil, 10-15 parts; 5-10 parts bay leaf essential oil; 3-8 parts of tonka bean essential oil; 3-8 parts of linalool thyme essential oil; Asarum essential oil 2-4 parts; The amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 70-80 parts rosemary hydrosol; Montanov L 5-6 portions; 2-5 portions of Lactobacillus fermentation lysate.
[0008] Preferably, in the compound essential oil, the weight ratio is: Magnolia biondii essential oil: Laurel leaf essential oil: Linalool thyme essential oil: Agastache rugosa essential oil: Asarum essential oil = (4~5):(3~4):(2~3):(2~3):(1~2); In the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition, the weight ratio is: rosemary hydrosol: Montanov L: lactobacillus fermentation lysate = (35~40):(2~3):(1~3).
[0009] Preferably, the mass ratio of the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition in the essential oil composition is 92% to 98%.
[0010] Preferably, in the compound essential oil, the ratio by weight is: Magnolia biondii essential oil: Laurel leaf essential oil: Linalool thyme essential oil: Tonka bean essential oil: Asarum essential oil = 5:4:3:3:1; In the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition, the weight ratio of rosemary hydrosol: Montanov L: lactobacillus fermentation lysate is 37.5:2.5:2.
[0011] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned anti-nasal congestion essential oil composition, comprising the following steps: The dried flower buds of the cleaned magnolia, the leaves of the laurel, the whole above-ground parts (stems, leaves and flowers) of the thyme plant picked at the beginning of flowering, the whole herb of the fragrant grass with roots, and the dried rhizomes of the asarum were crushed. Magnolia flower buds were processed and dried, then subjected to supercritical CO2 extraction to obtain Magnolia biondii essential oil. Bay leaf essential oil was obtained by steam distillation of the processed bay leaves. The above-ground parts (stems, leaves, and flowers) of the entire thyme plant, harvested at the early flowering stage after processing, were steam distilled to obtain linalool thyme essential oil. The processed whole herb of *Lingxiang* (with roots) was subjected to supercritical CO2 extraction to obtain Linglingxiang essential oil. The processed rhizomes of Asarum were subjected to supercritical CO2 extraction to obtain Asarum essential oil, followed by stepwise decompression to remove safrole to obtain Asarum essential oil. A compound essential oil is prepared by mixing magnolia flower essential oil, bay leaf essential oil, linalool thyme essential oil, tonka bean essential oil and asarum essential oil in a certain proportion; The compound essential oil is mixed evenly with the melted amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition to obtain the essential oil composition.
[0012] Preferably, the step of uniformly mixing the compound essential oil with the melted amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition to obtain the essential oil composition is as follows: Mix rosemary hydrosol and Montanov L in a container, heat to 70-75°C until completely melted, and stir with an electric stirrer for 2-3 minutes until Montanov L is completely dissolved and the liquid becomes clear; When the temperature drops to below 40°C, add the Lactobacillus fermentation lysate and stir until homogeneous to obtain the amphiphilic Lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition; Magnolia biondii oil, bay leaf oil, linalool thyme oil, tonka bean oil, and asarum oil were added to the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition and stirred until well mixed.
[0013] Preferably, in preparing the Magnolia biondii essential oil, the supercritical CO2 extraction temperature is 35-50℃, the pressure is 15-25MPa, and the time is 60min~90min; In preparing the laurel leaf essential oil, the heating temperature in the steam distillation apparatus is 100℃~150℃, the pressure is 100mbar~300mbar, and the heating time is 2h~4h. In preparing the linalool thyme essential oil, the heating temperature in the steam distillation apparatus is 100℃~120℃, the pressure is 300mbar~500mbar, and the heating time is 2h~3h. In preparing the Linglingxiang essential oil, the supercritical extraction temperature was 35-45℃, the pressure was 20-30MPa, and the time was 90min-150min. In preparing the Asarum essential oil, the supercritical CO2 extraction temperature is 40-50℃, the pressure is 25-35MPa, and the time is 2-3h. Then, safrole is removed stepwise under reduced pressure. The pressure is adjusted to 12-15MPa and the temperature is 40-50°C. Some safrole is first precipitated and separated as waste. Then, the pressure is adjusted to 4-8MPa and the temperature is 30-40°C to remove the residual trace amount of safrole. The goal is to reduce its content to below 0.01%.
[0014] Magnolia biondii essential oil is a traditional Chinese herbal plant essential oil extracted from the dried flower buds of Magnolia biondii, Magnolia denudata, or Magnolia wudangensis using supercritical CO2 extraction. Its core active ingredients include 1,8-cineole, camphor, and α-terpineol. Its core effects are clearing nasal passages and constricting blood vessels in the nasal mucosa, making it an essential remedy for relieving nasal congestion. It also has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties, reducing nasal discharge and improving nasal ventilation.
[0015] Bay leaf essential oil is a plant essential oil extracted from the leaves of the bay tree through steam distillation. Its main active ingredients are 1,8-cineole, eugenol, and eugenol acetate. Its core effects include strong anti-infection and nasal decongestion relief. It can effectively inhibit respiratory pathogens, relieve nasal congestion, and warm and unblock the meridians.
[0016] Linalool thyme essential oil is a plant essential oil extracted from the entire above-ground parts (stems, leaves, and flowers) of thyme harvested at the early flowering stage through steam distillation. Its main active ingredients are linalool and terpineol. Its core benefits include mild anti-infective properties, immune regulation, and mucus dissolving. It significantly relieves respiratory infections and nasal congestion, while also calming the mind and relieving fatigue. With a sweet and warm scent, it is suitable for children and those with sensitive skin.
[0017] Fuchsia essential oil (also known as lavender essential oil) is a traditional Chinese herbal plant essential oil extracted from the whole herb of *Lysimachia christinae*, a plant in the Primulaceae family, using supercritical CO2 extraction. Its main active ingredients are coumarins and flavonoids. Its core effects include dispelling foulness and turbidity, clearing the orifices and refreshing the mind. It can resolve dampness and turbidity, improve nasal congestion and headaches, and also has the functions of fixing fragrance and harmonizing various medicines.
[0018] Asarum essential oil is a traditional Chinese herbal essential oil obtained by extracting the rhizome of Asarum heterotropoides (a plant in the Aristolochiaceae family) using supercritical CO2 extraction followed by stepwise vacuum distillation to remove safrole. Its main active ingredients are methyl eugenol and elemol, which dilate blood vessels, increase blood flow, enhance oxygen and nutrient supply, and improve microcirculation. Due to its unique aroma and antibacterial properties, it is often used to improve respiratory problems, relieve symptoms such as nasal congestion, sore throat, and cough, reduce mucus secretion, and promote respiratory relaxation. It is worth noting that ordinary Asarum essential oil contains safrole, making it contraindicated for pregnant women and infants. Therefore, we fractionally distill to remove safrole, making it safer.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following superior effects:
[0020] The aforementioned anti-nasal congestion essential oil composition uses compound essential oils based on the "principal, assistant, adjuvant, and guide" formulation theory. Magnolia flower essential oil is the principal ingredient for clearing nasal passages; bay leaf essential oil and linalool thyme essential oil are the assistant ingredients to warm the meridians and clear the passages; tonka bean essential oil is the adjuvant ingredient to dispel foulness and turbidity and harmonize the other ingredients; and asarum essential oil is the guiding ingredient to penetrate deeper into the body. Specifically, magnolia flower and bay leaf essential oils quickly clear the passages and treat the symptoms; asarum and tonka bean essential oils warm and dispel cold and dampness, dispel foulness and turbidity, and treat the root cause; and linalool thyme essential oil regulates immunity. The five ingredients work synergistically to have a significant effect of warming the meridians, dispelling dampness, clearing the passages, and addressing the root cause to reduce recurrence. It is an anti-nasal congestion product that combines rapid nasal clearing with long-lasting maintenance, is safe and gentle, and has a scientifically formulated composition, making it particularly suitable for sensitive groups such as children and the elderly.
[0021] The dosage of each single essential oil in the compound essential oil is precisely controlled. In particular, the dosage of Asarum essential oil is not only precisely controlled, but safrole is also fractionated out, and mild linalool thyme is selected to replace the strong peppermint or thymol-type thyme, which greatly reduces the irritation to the nasal mucosa, making it safer, milder, and less irritating, suitable for a wider range of people.
[0022] The addition of tonka bean in compound essential oils not only has the effect of dispelling foulness and turbidity, but also acts as a binder for aroma. Its unique hay-like aroma blends the mild herbal scent of magnolia essential oil with the spicy aroma of bay leaf essential oil, forming an overall warm and pleasant fragrance that significantly improves user acceptance.
[0023] The layered transparent system constructed from the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition can stably carry both the oil phase compound essential oil and the aqueous phase active ingredients. While clearing the nasal passages, it repairs the damaged skin microecological barrier around the nose. Blending the compound essential oil with the amphiphilic lactobacillus fermentation lysate composition can delay the release rate of the active ingredients in the essential oil, making the dosage form advanced and improving its comfort and compliance.
[0024] The aforementioned anti-nasal congestion essential oil combination employs an optimal preparation method to improve the quality of individual essential oils and increase the yield of essential oils. Furthermore, a low-temperature stepwise addition method is used during the preparation of the essential oil combination to ensure that heat-sensitive active ingredients (Lactobacillus fermentation lysate and tonka bean essential oil) are not destroyed, thus preserving their biological activity to the greatest extent possible.
