[0002] With the fast pace of life and increasing work pressure, modern people commonly face scalp health problems such as hair loss, gray hair, oily scalp, itching, and loose hair roots. These problems are closely related to factors such as long-term mental stress, poor work and rest habits, and environmental pollution. At the same time, the chemical ingredients such as silicone oil and sulfates widely used in traditional shampoos, although providing a temporary cleansing effect, can damage the scalp barrier function with long-term use, exacerbating scalp sensitivity and hair fragility.

[0003] In recent years, consumers have placed increasing demands on the safety and gentleness of hair care products, showing a greater preference for shampoos with primarily natural plant-based ingredients. Traditional Chinese herbal medicines such as ginseng, processed Polygonum multiflorum, and Platycladus orientalis leaves have gained popularity due to their hair-nourishing and hair-strengthening effects. Ganoderma lucidum, a superior medicinal and edible herb, is rich in polysaccharides, triterpenes, and adenosine, exhibiting significant immune-regulating, antioxidant, and microcirculation-improving functions. However, there are few reports of all-herbal shampoos prepared using Ganoderma lucidum as the principal ingredient and processed through standardized water extraction techniques.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a water-extracted herbal shampoo with Ganoderma lucidum as the core medicinal material, combining traditional plant-based hair care ingredients, in order to meet consumers' multiple needs for cleaning, nourishing, strengthening, and darkening hair.

[0019] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, the accompanying drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. It should be understood that the following drawings only show some embodiments of the present invention and should not be regarded as a limitation on the scope. For those skilled in the art, other related drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0020] Figure 1 The results of experiments 1-4 are as follows: (a) Experiment 1, (b) Experiment 2, (c) Experiment 3, (d) Experiment 4; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoo prepared in Example 1 of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0022] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoo, comprising the following components by weight: 1-15 parts of Ganoderma lucidum extract, 100-166 parts of traditional Chinese medicine compound extract, 5-8 parts of adjuvants, and the remainder water; Among them, the compound extracts of traditional Chinese medicine include 7-13 parts of soapberry, 17-23 parts of soapberry, 7-13 parts of angelica, 5-11 parts of angelica dahurica, 7-13 parts of ginger, 7-13 parts of processed fleeceflower root, 12-18 parts of dried mugwort, 7-13 parts of arborvitae leaf, 12-18 parts of phellodendron bark, 7-13 parts of salvia miltiorrhiza, and 12-18 parts of black sesame.

[0023] It should be noted that the overall concept of this invention is embodied in the fact that hair loss and graying are not merely localized scalp problems, but rather manifestations of systemic pathological changes in the head, such as dysfunction of the internal organs, deficiency of qi and blood, and internal damp-heat. The formula uses Ganoderma lucidum as the principal ingredient to support the body's overall vital energy and regulate organ function; Platycladus orientalis leaves, processed Polygonum multiflorum, Angelica sinensis, and black sesame seeds as secondary ingredients to nourish the liver and kidneys, and promote blood circulation and hair growth, addressing the root cause of the disease; and Gleditsia sinensis, Sapindus mukorossi, ginger, Artemisia argyi, Phellodendron chinense, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Angelica dahurica as adjuvant ingredients to clear damp-heat, invigorate blood circulation, and relieve dandruff and itching, while also addressing local symptoms. This formulation combines "holistic regulation with local treatment," reflecting the holistic concept of traditional Chinese medicine: "treating the root cause of the disease."

[0024] In terms of syndrome differentiation and treatment, this invention mainly targets the following two common syndrome types. The first is the syndrome of deficiency of qi and blood and insufficiency of liver and kidney, which is characterized by dry, thin, soft, brittle, and prematurely gray hair, accompanied by dizziness, tinnitus, soreness of the waist and knees, insomnia and dreaminess. In this formula, Ganoderma lucidum, processed Polygonum multiflorum, Angelica sinensis, black sesame, and Platycladus orientalis leaves nourish qi and blood and tonify liver and kidney. The second is the syndrome of damp-heat accumulation and blood stasis, which is characterized by excessive sebum secretion on the scalp, increased dandruff, and obvious itching, even folliculitis and seborrheic dermatitis, accompanied by bitter taste in the mouth and sticky stool. In this formula, Phellodendron bark clears heat and dries dampness, Salvia miltiorrhiza promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis, Gleditsia sinensis and Sapindus mukorossi remove oil and dirt, Artemisia argyi and Angelica dahurica remove dampness and relieve itching, and ginger warms and unblocks blood vessels. Both symptoms can be observed simultaneously. The combination of the principal, assistant, adjuvant, and guide herbs in this invention is precise. It can not only nourish the liver and kidneys and promote blood and hair growth to treat the root cause, but also clear heat and dry dampness, promote blood circulation and unblock collaterals, and remove dandruff and relieve itching to treat the symptoms. It fully reflects the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine in treating according to syndrome differentiation and taking into account both the root cause and the symptoms.

[0025] Furthermore, the traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoo provided in this embodiment of the invention follows the principle of "principal, assistant, adjuvant, and guide" in traditional Chinese medicine formulation. The functions and effects of each ingredient are analyzed as follows: The principal ingredient is Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi mushroom). Ganoderma lucidum is sweet and neutral in nature, and enters the heart, lung, liver, and kidney meridians. Its functions include tonifying qi and calming the mind, strengthening the body's resistance and consolidating its foundation. Studies have shown that Ganoderma lucidum enhances immunity, has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, and promotes hair follicle cell metabolism. In this invention, Ganoderma lucidum, as the principal ingredient, targets the root cause of hair loss and gray hair—deficiency of qi and blood and imbalance of internal organs—by holistically supporting the body's vital energy, improving the scalp microenvironment, and providing a material basis for hair growth and darkening.

[0026] The assistant herbs include arborvitae leaves, processed Polygonum multiflorum, Angelica sinensis, and black sesame seeds. Arborvitae leaves are bitter, astringent, and slightly cold, entering the lung, liver, and spleen meridians. They function to cool the blood and stop bleeding, promote hair growth and darken hair, making them a key herb for treating hair loss and premature graying. Processed Polygonum multiflorum is bitter, sweet, astringent, and warm, entering the liver, heart, and kidney meridians. It functions to tonify the liver and kidneys, nourish essence and blood, and darken hair; processed Polygonum multiflorum is a core herb for darkening hair. Angelica sinensis is sweet, pungent, and warm, entering the liver, heart, and spleen meridians. It functions to nourish and invigorate blood, improve scalp blood supply, and promote nutrient delivery to hair follicles. Black sesame seeds are sweet and neutral, entering the liver, kidney, and large intestine meridians. They function to tonify the liver and kidneys, nourish essence and blood, moisten dryness, and nourish hair roots, making hair soft, supple, and shiny. These four assistant herbs work together to assist the principal herb in tonifying the liver and kidneys, nourishing blood, and promoting hair growth, directly targeting the core pathogenesis of hair loss and graying.

[0027] The adjuvant herbs include soapberry, soapberry, ginger, dried mugwort, phellodendron bark, salvia miltiorrhiza, and angelica dahurica. Among them, soapberry and soapberry are rich in natural saponins, which cleanse and remove dandruff, and are relatively mild, not damaging to the scalp. Ginger is pungent and warm, and functions to relieve exterior syndromes, dispel cold, and warm the blood vessels, promoting local blood circulation in the scalp and stimulating hair follicle activity. Dried mugwort is bitter, pungent, and warm, and functions to warm the meridians, stop bleeding, dispel cold, relieve pain, and eliminate dampness and itching, especially effective in treating scalp eczema and itching. Phellodendron bark is bitter and cold, and enters the kidney and bladder meridians, clearing heat, drying dampness, purging fire, and detoxifying, effectively treating seborrheic dermatitis and scalp itching caused by internal damp-heat. Salvia miltiorrhiza is bitter and slightly cold, and enters the heart and liver meridians, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, cooling blood, and eliminating carbuncles, improving scalp stagnation and promoting new hair growth. Angelica dahurica is pungent and warm, and enters the lung, stomach, and large intestine meridians. Its functions include dispelling wind and releasing the exterior, drying dampness and stopping leukorrhea, reducing swelling and draining pus, and also relieving pain and itching. It can also be used as an adjuvant to harmonize other herbs. These adjuvant herbs, on the one hand, assist the principal and assistant herbs in enhancing their efficacy, and on the other hand, address problems such as scalp itching, dandruff, and excessive sebum secretion.

[0028] The main ingredient is Angelica dahurica, which is contained within the adjuvant ingredients. Its pungent and aromatic properties guide the medicine upwards to the scalp and harmonize the cold, hot, warm, and cool properties of the ingredients in the formula.

[0029] In an optional implementation, the amount of Ganoderma lucidum extract used, by weight, can be selected from any one of 1 part, 5 parts, 8 parts, 10 parts and 15 parts, or other values ​​from 1 part to 15 parts.

[0030] In an optional embodiment, the traditional Chinese medicine compound extract, by weight, includes 9-11 parts of soapberry, 19-21 parts of soapberry, 9-11 parts of angelica, 7-9 parts of angelica dahurica, 9-11 parts of ginger, 9-11 parts of processed fleeceflower root, 14-16 parts of dried mugwort, 9-11 parts of arborvitae leaf, 14-16 parts of phellodendron bark, 9-11 parts of salvia miltiorrhiza, and 14-16 parts of black sesame.

[0031] Furthermore, the compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine includes 10 parts of soapberry, 20 parts of soapberry, 10 parts of angelica, 8 parts of angelica dahurica, 10 parts of ginger, 10 parts of processed fleeceflower root, 15 parts of dried mugwort, 10 parts of arborvitae leaf, 15 parts of phellodendron bark, 10 parts of salvia miltiorrhiza and 15 parts of black sesame.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, the additives include 1-2 parts of moisturizing factor, 2-3 parts of thickener and 3-5 parts of foaming agent by weight. The moisturizing factor is selected from at least one of glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and panthenol; the thickener is selected from at least one of methyl gluconate dioleate, distearate, lauryl hydroxysulfonate betaine and cetearyl alcohol; and the foaming agent is selected from at least one of sodium cocoyl glycinate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium lauroyl glutamate and sodium methyl cocoyl taurate.

[0033] Moisturizing factors help to absorb and lock in moisture in the cuticle / hair shaft, reducing dryness and static electricity after shampooing, making hair smoother and easier to comb; they also help repair the hair cuticle and reduce friction damage.

[0034] The addition of thickeners can improve the pump feel, spreadability, and suspension of insoluble particles in traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoos, as well as stabilize the emulsion system and prevent separation.

[0035] Foaming agents are surfactants that help reduce the surface tension of water, emulsify and remove oil, dirt, etc. from the scalp / hair; they also trap air to form a bubble film, producing abundant foam.

[0036] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoo as described in any of the foregoing embodiments, comprising the following steps: Ganoderma lucidum extract and traditional Chinese medicine compound extract are mixed in proportion, filtered, and then auxiliary agents are added. The mixture is heated at 70℃-82℃ until bubbles appear in the reaction system. Heating is then stopped, and the mixture is cooled to room temperature to obtain the traditional Chinese medicine compound shampoo.

[0037] The filtration process after mixing Ganoderma lucidum extract and traditional Chinese medicine compound extracts is beneficial for removing residue and colloids from the system, preventing sedimentation or pump head blockage in the resulting shampoo.

[0038] Adding additives before heating helps ensure uniform mixing of the additives in the reaction system. Continuous stirring during preparation prevents stratification or localized segregation, ensuring uniform mass transfer throughout the system. When tiny bubbles appear in the system, heating should be stopped while stirring continues to promote the full dissolution or reaction of the components and prevent excessive air from being incorporated into the finished product, which could cause collapse after filling.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the weight ratio of Ganoderma lucidum extract to traditional Chinese medicine compound extract is 1:(6-15); preferably 1:(8-12).

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the preparation of Ganoderma lucidum extract includes the following steps: Add Ganoderma lucidum powder and water at a ratio of 1:(10-30). Under conditions of 70℃-100℃, first treat with ultrasound for 0.5h-2h, then treat with water bath for 1h-3h; wherein the ultrasound power is 400W-700W.

[0041] Furthermore, the ratio of Ganoderma lucidum powder to water is 1:(18-22), the temperature is 86℃-92℃, the ultrasonic treatment time is 0.8h-1.2h, the ultrasonic power is 550W-600W, and the water bath treatment time is 1.5h-2.5h.

[0042] It should be noted that after weighing an appropriate amount of Ganoderma lucidum fruiting body, drying and pulverizing it, and then filtering it through a 100-mesh sieve, Ganoderma lucidum powder is obtained.

[0043] For example, the ratio of Ganoderma lucidum powder to water is 1:20, which means that 1g of Ganoderma lucidum powder corresponds to 20mL of water.

[0044] There are no specific restrictions on the type of water; you can choose purified water, deionized water, mineral water, distilled water, etc., depending on the actual situation.

[0045] Furthermore, the ratio of Ganoderma lucidum powder to water is 1:20, the temperature is 90℃, the ultrasonic treatment time is 1 hour, the ultrasonic treatment power is 600W, and the water bath treatment time is 2 hours. In other embodiments of the present invention, the above parameters can be reasonably adjusted according to the actual amount of material being processed.

[0046] Ultrasonic treatment of Ganoderma lucidum powder helps to break down the cell walls of Ganoderma lucidum, making the effective components inside the cell walls easier to dissolve, shortening the extraction time, and reducing the extraction temperature requirement. It also helps to reduce the degradation of heat-sensitive polysaccharides caused by prolonged heating at high temperatures. In addition, it can reduce the amount of residual effective components in the extraction residue, improve the utilization rate of raw materials, and reduce costs.

[0047] Water bath treatment helps to provide a continuous and suitable temperature environment for the Ganoderma lucidum extraction system, allowing the polysaccharides released by cell wall disruption to fully diffuse in the solvent.

[0048] In an optional implementation, the preparation of the traditional Chinese medicine compound extract includes the following steps: Each herb used in the Chinese herbal compound extract was cleaned and weighed, and then dried, pulverized and sterilized to obtain fine powder of the herbs. The fine powder of the medicinal material is placed in water and soaked for 28-35 minutes, then decocted for 0.8-1.5 hours to obtain the first decoction. Add water to the residue of the first decoction and decoct for 0.8-1.5 hours to obtain the second decoction. The first decoction and the second decoction were mixed to obtain a compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, the drying temperature of each herb in the traditional Chinese medicine compound extract is 50℃-65℃; The pulverized medicinal materials have a mesh size of 80-120 mesh; The sterilization process can be selected from either autoclaving or ionizing radiation sterilization.

[0050] Specifically, each herb in the Chinese herbal compound extract is cleaned, weighed, dried, pulverized, and sterilized in sequence to obtain a uniform fine powder of mixed herbs.

[0051] Preparation of the compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine: The obtained fine powder of the medicinal materials was placed in a decoction bag, and 1000 mL of purified water was added. The mixture was soaked for 30 minutes to allow the materials to fully absorb water and swell. Then, the soaked materials, along with the decoction bag, were placed in a pot, and 5 L of purified water was added. The mixture was first brought to a rapid boil over high heat, then simmered over low heat for 1 hour. After simmering, the liquid was poured off to obtain the first decoction. Another 1000 mL of purified water was added to the residue from the first decoction for a second extraction. Similarly, the mixture was first brought to a rapid boil over high heat, then simmered over low heat for 1 hour. The liquid was then poured off to obtain the second decoction. The first and second decoctions were mixed to obtain the compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, the preparation method further includes the following steps: The pH of the herbal compound shampoo was adjusted to 5.5-6.0, and the consistency to 4000mPa·s-6000mPa·s.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, the pH adjuster used in the herbal compound shampoo is 8wt%-10wt% malic acid and 8wt%-10wt% sodium hydroxide; in other embodiments of the present invention, other types of pH adjusters may be selected according to actual needs.

[0054] Furthermore, the pH adjuster used is 10 wt% malic acid and 10 wt% sodium hydroxide.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, the Ganoderma lucidum extract and the compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine are mixed and then filtered using a 200-400 mesh filter.

[0056] Specifically, the Ganoderma lucidum extract and the compound extract of traditional Chinese medicine are mixed and filtered through a 300-mesh filter. The filtrate is transferred to a mixing tank, heated while stirring, and auxiliary agents are added according to the formula ratio: moisturizing factor, thickener and foaming agent, to ensure that all components are fully mixed and uniform.

[0057] It should be noted that the mesh size of the filter screen should be selected reasonably according to actual needs, and the material of the filter screen is stainless steel. In other embodiments of the present invention, other types of filters can be selected according to actual needs, such as plate and frame filters, microporous membrane filters, ceramic membrane filters, bag filters or core precision filters.

[0058] In an optional implementation, after adjusting the pH of the herbal compound shampoo, a comprehensive quality inspection is conducted on the product, including tests for consistency, appearance, odor, paste consistency, and stability (such as heat and cold resistance tests). Once all indicators pass the tests, the herbal compound shampoo is obtained.

[0059] The features and performance of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments.

The relevant steps were the same as step (1) in Example 1, except for the water bath treatment time: 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h and 3h. The extraction yield was summarized and analyzed.

[0079] Experimental Example 3 This experiment was used to investigate the effect of the material-liquid ratio on the extraction of Ganoderma lucidum. The relevant steps were the same as step (1) in Example 1, except that the material-liquid ratio was 1:10, 1:20 and 1:30. The extraction yield was summarized and analyzed.

[0080] Test Example 4 This experiment was used to investigate the effect of ultrasonic treatment time on the extraction of Ganoderma lucidum. The relevant steps were the same as step (1) in Example 1, except for the ultrasonic treatment time: 0 min, 30 min, 60 min, 90 min and 120 min. The extraction yield was summarized and analyzed.

[0081] Test Example 1 This test example uses Example 3 as an example to conduct quality testing on the prepared Chinese herbal compound shampoo. The test items include pH value, consistency, appearance, odor, paste consistency, heat resistance stability test and cold resistance stability test. The relevant test methods, standards and test results of Example 3 are summarized in Table 1.

[0082] Table 1 Test Results

[0083] Test Example 2 The extraction yields obtained from Experiments 1-4 are summarized, as detailed in the following table. Figure 1 (a) Experimental Example 1, (b) Experimental Example 2, (c) Experimental Example 3, (d) Experimental Example 4.

[0084] It should be noted that this test example summarizes the extraction yield by monitoring the content of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides. The extraction yield is calculated as follows: (Equation-1); In Formula 1, W1 is the mass of dried Ganoderma lucidum crude polysaccharide, and W0 is the mass of dried Ganoderma lucidum powder.

[0085] from Figure 1 It can be seen that the suitable extraction conditions for Ganoderma lucidum are: extraction temperature 90℃, total extraction time 180 minutes (including 60 minutes of ultrasonic-assisted extraction and 120 minutes of water bath extraction), and a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:20. Under these conditions, further increasing the temperature, extending the extraction time, or increasing the material-to-liquid ratio all result in a gradual increase in the extraction rate of Ganoderma lucidum. Considering energy consumption, polysaccharide structure protection, and subsequent concentration costs, the above parameters are determined to be the optimal combination.

[0086] Test Example 3 This test case applies the herbal compound shampoos prepared in Examples 1-4 and the commercially available shampoos provided in Comparative Examples 1-3. The test results are summarized in Table 2.

[0087] Testing Method: 140 volunteers, aged 25 to 50, were recruited. The volunteers were randomly divided into 7 groups of 20 each, using the shampoos from Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3, respectively. The 140 volunteers evaluated the effects on hair loss prevention, dandruff removal, oil control, prevention of gray hair growth, and overall improvement based on their subjective experience during use. The shampoos were used 2-3 times per week. After 4 weeks, a rating system of 1-10 was used, where 1 point indicates completely ineffective and 10 points indicate highly effective.

[0088] Hair washing method: After wetting your hair, apply an appropriate amount of shampoo to the surface of your hair and gently massage your scalp for 2-3 minutes. Then rinse off the shampoo. Use continuously for 4 weeks.

[0089] Table 2 Test Results

[0090] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, based on the above shampoo test results, the overall performance of each embodiment is significantly better than that of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Comparative Example 3. Among them, Example 3 is at the best or tied for best in terms of anti-hair loss effect (9.0), prevention of gray hair growth (8.9), and overall improvement effect (9.0), showing the best overall performance.

[0091] In summary, the herbal compound shampoo provided by this invention is a whole-herbal shampoo with Ganoderma lucidum as the core and supplemented with herbal compound extracts. It is made by scientifically combining various herbal extracts and refining them through a full water extraction process. It not only retains the unique natural compound fragrance of Chinese medicine, but also has the characteristics of being gentle on the skin and low in irritation. While deeply nourishing the scalp, it achieves multiple effects such as oil control, dandruff removal, hair loss prevention, hair strengthening, and delaying gray hair. It is a whole-herbal scalp care preparation that integrates cleansing and nourishment, providing a safe and effective care solution for sub-healthy scalps.
