Solution Overview

Problem

Current health foods and medicaments do not effectively alleviate physical fatigue, reduce blood lipids, or enhance anoxia endurance using a formulation of Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Ganoderma, and fermented Cordyceps sinensis powder, nor do they incorporate Flos Rosae Rugosae for synergistic effects.

Innovation Solution

A traditional Chinese medicine composition combining Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Ganoderma, fermented Cordyceps sinensis powder, and optionally Flos Rosae Rugosae, formulated to exert synergistic effects by activating Qi, harmonizing blood, and regulating the Five Zang Viscera, thereby alleviating physical fatigue, reducing blood lipids, and enhancing anoxia endurance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional health foods containing single ingredients like Ganoderma or Cordyceps are used, then they have some anti-fatigue effect, but they cannot effectively alleviate physical fatigue, reduce blood lipids, or enhance anoxia endurance

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-fatigue effectVSAvoidefficacy in alleviating physical fatigue
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines four traditional Chinese medicine ingredients (Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Ganoderma, fermented Cordyceps sinensis powder, and Flos Rosae Rugosae) into a single health food composition. This merging of multiple ingredients with complementary functions creates a synergistic effect that overcomes the limited anti-fatigue efficacy of single-ingredient products, simultaneously addressing physical fatigue, blood lipid reduction, and anoxia endurance enhancement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite health food formulation by integrating four different TCM ingredients, each contributing unique pharmacological properties. Radix Panacis Quinquefolii provides Qi-activating effects, Ganoderma contributes to immune modulation, fermented Cordyceps sinensis powder enhances respiratory function, and Flos Rosae Rugosae adds blood-harmonizing properties. This composite approach yields superior anti-fatigue, lipid-lowering, and anoxia-resistant effects compared to individual ingredients.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Reliability

If a formulation combining Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Ganoderma, and fermented Cordyceps sinensis powder is used, then synergistic effects are achieved, but the formulation is not optimized for maximum efficacy in resisting oxidation, resisting fatigue, reducing blood lipids, and enhancing anoxia endurance

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesynergistic effectVSAvoidoverall efficacy in multiple health benefits
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enhances the existing three-ingredient formulation by adding Flos Rosae Rugosae, creating a four-ingredient composite that addresses multiple health parameters simultaneously. The addition of Flos Rosae Rugosae, which has blood-harmonizing and Qi-activating properties, complements the existing ingredients to achieve optimized efficacy in resisting oxidation, resisting fatigue, reducing blood lipids, and enhancing anoxia endurance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent optimizes the formulation by adjusting the compositional parameters of the health food, specifically incorporating Flos Rosae Rugosae to balance the pharmacological profile. This parameter change enhances the overall efficacy across multiple health benefits while maintaining the synergistic effects of the original three ingredients, creating a more comprehensive anti-fatigue and lipid-lowering formulation.
