Description

Composition for boosting immunity

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition for enhancing immunity and a method for preparing the same.

[0002] Immunity is the human body's self-defense mechanism, referring to the body's ability to recognize and eliminate external invaders (viruses, bacteria, etc.), process aging, damaged, dead, or degenerated cells, and recognize and respond to mutated cells and virus-infected cells. In other words, immunity can be described as a physiological response and self-defense mechanism of the human body aimed at recognizing and eliminating "foreign substances." Human immune capacity is broadly divided into two types: specific immunity and non-specific immunity.

[0003] The human immune system consists of three lines of defense. The first line of defense is the skin and mucous membranes, which can block most pathogens at this stage. The second line of defense consists of antimicrobial substances in body fluids and various phagocytes, which eliminate pathogens that have invaded the body before they can spread. The second line of defense is not limited to specific pathogens but exerts a defensive effect against various pathogens and belongs to innate immunity. The third line of defense consists of immune organs (tonsils, lymph nodes, thymus, bone marrow, spleen, etc.) and immune cells (lymphocytes, phagocytes, etc.) delivered throughout the body via blood and lymphatic circulation; this corresponds to specific immunity, which acts only on specific pathogens or foreign substances. The third line of defense belongs to adaptive immunity. These three lines of defense act in a mutually complementary manner.

[0004] From a physiological perspective, the body's immunity naturally declines with age, particularly after the age of 40. When combined with irregular lifestyle and dietary habits, this can lead to a state of sub-health and an increased incidence of chronic diseases. From a social perspective, the prevalence of immune diseases is on the rise due to industrialization and environmental changes. Decreased immunity is a common clinical condition; symptoms include persistent fatigue, chronic colds with slow recovery, wounds that heal poorly or are susceptible to infection, and recurrent asthma, bronchitis, or diarrhea; in severe cases, it can lead to more serious illnesses.

[0005] In Korean traditional medicine (and Chinese medicine), the roots of the understanding of immunity can be traced back over 2,000 years. In Korean traditional medicine, this is referred to as *Jeonggi* (vital energy). The *Huangdi Neijing* (Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine) records that "where Jeonggi is abundant, harmful energies cannot invade, and where harmful energies gather, Jeonggi is inevitably deficient." The strength or weakness of Jeonggi refers to the body's ability to prevent and combat disease. In a state of weak Jeonggi, external harmful energies can invade, or the physiological functions of internal organs weaken, leading to organ dysfunction, metabolic abnormalities of Qi, blood, and body fluids, and the accumulation of pathogenic products such as phlegm and dampness stasis, ultimately resulting in disease. The state of "weak Jeonggi" is similar to the etiology of immunodeficiency diseases in modern medicine, which involve abnormalities in the development, biochemical action, proliferation, regulation, or metabolism of immune cells. Research indicates that a deficiency and depletion of Jeonggi are major causes of various diseases. Therefore, "Jeonggi" is strengthened by nourishing Jeonggi, identifying the weakness of the constitution, and employing methods such as tonifying energy, nourishing blood, nourishing Yin, warming Yang, sequestering essence, and generating body fluids. This corrects physical imbalances and demonstrates excellent efficacy in strengthening immunity and improving the stability of the immune system. It leads to a healthy state where “vital energy is abundant, negative energy naturally disappears, and Yin and Yang are in harmony.”

[0006] Korean traditional medicine is characterized by a patient-centered approach to disease prevention and treatment, aiming for fundamental healing while alleviating symptoms tailored to individual needs. Complex herbal prescriptions enable symptom-specific diagnosis and treatment, provide complementary effects, and offer comprehensive efficacy with minimal side effects, making them applicable to the entire population with weakened immunity.

This is distinct from the roots of Angelica gigas Nakai (Korean Angelica) of the Apiaceae family, Angelica acutiloba (Siebold. & Zucc.) Kitag. (Japanese Angelica) or Angelica acutiloba (Siebold. & Zucc.) Kitag. var. sugiyamae Hikino (Japanese Angelica) of the Apiaceae family in Japan. Angelica sinensis has a warm energy and a sweet yet pungent taste; generally, Angelica sinensis has a stronger sweet taste and a weaker spiciness compared to Angelica gigas Nakai. The efficacy of Angelica sinensis is a blood-replenishing effect that generates blood when there is a blood deficiency, and Angelica made from the root of Angelica sinensis has an excellent blood-replenishing effect. However, Angelica root, made from the roots of the Korean angelica, is more effective in promoting smooth blood circulation than in tonifying blood, and it has strong anticancer and blood pressure-lowering effects. Pharmacologically, Angelica is known to promote coronary artery blood flow and stimulate red blood cell production.

[0091] In this invention, the dried rhizome of *Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort.* or *Ligusticum wallichii Franch.*, a plant of the Apiaceae family, may be used as *Cheongung*. *Cheongung* is a perennial herb belonging to the Apiaceae family, order Apiaceae, class Dicotyledonous plants, and is generally cultivated as a medicinal plant. It is effective for sedation, pain relief, and tonic purposes, and is used to treat headaches, anemia, and gynecological diseases. The rhizome is dug up between September and November, the leaves and stems are removed, and after drying in the sun, it is decocted for consumption or used in the form of pills or powder.

[0092] Paeonia lactiflora Pall., a plant of the Ranunculaceae family, is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Paeonia in the family Paeoniaceae that grows in mountainous regions. It is used for horticulture due to its beautiful flowers. Additionally, its roots are used as a medicinal ingredient for pain relief, abdominal pain, menstrual cramps, amenorrhea, hemoptysis, anemia, and bruises. In China, it was already cultivated as an ornamental plant during the Qin and Ming dynasties, giving it a longer history of cultivation than the tree peony. Through the Song and Qing dynasties, dozens of varieties were recorded, and it is distributed in Korea, Mongolia, and Eastern Siberia.

[0093] In the present invention, the white peony root may be used in its dried form.

[0094] In one or more embodiments, Angelica sinensis serves as the principal herb, possessing the efficacy of nourishing blood and harmonizing yin; it replenishes deficiency syndromes and treats the underlying causes. Its acidic nature prevents blood stasis. Paeonia lactiflora serves as the auxiliary herb, possessing the efficacy of nourishing blood and relieving yin; it assists the blood-nourishing action of Angelica sinensis and harmonizes the stomach and intestines by strengthening the dispersing function through its liver-softening action. Ligusticum chuanxiong is a herb that promotes the circulation of qi within the blood; it facilitates blood circulation and has the efficacy of dissolving blood stasis, ensuring that qi and blood flow freely without obstruction. Ligusticum chuanxiong serves as a regulating herb, playing a role in harmonizing the actions of the drugs.

[0131] The food composition of the present invention includes all forms such as functional food, nutritional supplement, health food, and food additives, and said types of food compositions can be prepared in various forms according to conventional methods known in the art.

[0132] When the composition of the present invention is used as a food additive, the composition may be added as is or used together with other foods or food ingredients, and may be used appropriately according to conventional methods. The amount of the active ingredient can be appropriately determined according to the purpose of use (prevention, health, or therapeutic treatment). Generally, when manufacturing food or beverages, the composition of the present invention is added in an amount of 0.0001 to 90 weight%, preferably 0.001 to 50 weight%, of the raw material composition. However, in the case of long-term consumption for the purpose of health and hygiene or health control, the amount may be used in an amount less than the above range.

[0133] There are no special restrictions on the types of food mentioned above. Examples of foods to which the above composition may be added include meat, sausage, bread, chocolate, candies, snacks, confectionery, pizza, ramen, other noodles, chewing gum, dairy products including ice cream, various soups, beverages, tea, drinks, alcoholic beverages, and vitamin complexes, and may include all health foods in the conventional sense.

[0134] The health beverage composition of the present invention may contain various flavoring agents or natural carbohydrates as additional ingredients, as in conventional beverages.

[0136] Another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above objective provides a health supplement comprising the composition of the present invention as an active ingredient.

[0137] The above term “health supplement” may include all known ranges of substances that play an auxiliary role for health.

[0138] The composition of this product is suitable for individuals with weakened immunity, particularly those exhibiting symptoms of Qi and Blood deficiency. These symptoms include fatigue, general weakness, exhaustion, a weak voice, lethargy, listlessness, lower back pain, heaviness in the legs, increased fatigue after exercise, frequent sweating, a pale complexion, and dry skin. Additionally, patients dislike cold and wind, catch colds easily, and have reduced recovery abilities. In women, menstrual flow may be light or pale in color, or amenorrhea may occur. Other accompanying symptoms may include loss of appetite, a pale tongue, a thin white coating, and a weak pulse. Traditional Korean medicine views the fundamental causes of weakened immunity as stemming from deficiency of essence and imbalances in Qi and Blood. It has long been said, "If Qi and Blood are vigorous, no disease can afflict you." The *Huangdi Neijing* states, "What a person possesses is only blood and qi," and the *Jingyue Quanshu* states, "Humans possess Yin and Yang, which are akin to blood and qi. Since Yang governs qi, the spirit is vigorous when qi is abundant; since Yin governs blood, the physical form is strong when it is abundant. Life relies solely on these." The *Yilin Kaichao* states, "The core of treating diseases lies in understanding qi and blood." Therefore, the key to preventing and treating a decline in immunity lies in tonifying qi and yang blood, and circulating qi and invigorating blood. Based on the Korean medical causes and pathophysiology of a decline in immunity, this invention improves symptoms by nourishing qi and blood and resolves the root cause, thereby bringing about the effect of strengthening vital energy and solidifying the foundation.

[0139] The composition described herein acts effectively on diseases with deficiency of both Qi and blood as the primary etiology, simultaneously nourishes Qi and blood, circulates Qi to resolve stagnation, and eliminates blood stasis through nourishing and invigorating blood. There are no contraindications for concomitant use, and since the efficacy of each component is mutually complementary, it is highly effective for boosting immunity.

[0140] One or more embodiments of the present invention provide the use of the above composition or the above herbal medicine preparation for boosting immunity.

[0141] One or more embodiments of the present invention provide a method for enhancing immunity, comprising the step of administering the above composition or the above herbal medicine preparation to an individual.

[0142] In the present invention, the term "administration" refers to introducing a composition of the present invention to a subject by any appropriate method, and the route of administration may be administered via various oral or parenteral routes as long as it can reach the target tissue.

[0143] In the present invention, the individual may include humans or non-human species, and more specifically, may include mammals including humans, and even more specifically, may include humans, dogs, rats, rabbits, cats, horses, or cattle, but may include any individual whose immunity can be enhanced by the administration of the composition of the present invention without limitation.

[0144]
