Advantages and Disadvantages

For the inspection of the Chinese medicine market, many citrus peels used in pharmacies and hospitals are dark in color, light in odor, and inferior in quality, failing to meet medical requirements. In fact, it's not that the older Chen Pei gets, the better. The outer surface of fine orange peel is orange-red or reddish-brown, with fine wrinkles and concave point-shaped oil chambers; the inner surface is light yellow-white and rough, with yellow-white or yellow-brown tendon-like vascular bundles. Many of the existing Chenpi skins on the market do not meet national standards. The fine Chen leather is slightly hard and brittle, gas scented, spicy, bitter, neat in shape, and uniform in thickness, about 1 mm, with a larger oil chamber.

Citrus is a dry, mature skin of Rutaceae and its varieties, which mainly contain volatile oil. Dried tangerine peel is bitter, pungent, warm, bitter and energy-dispelling, Xin Neng San, Wen Nenghe, so it has the effect of qi and spleen, dampness and phlegm, indicating chest fullness, eating less vomiting and diarrhea, coughing more, Is blindly used traditional Chinese medicine. The ancients believed that: Chen is better for medicine, hence the name "Chenpi." Dried orange peel hurts yin, qi deficiency, yin deficiency, infirm use with caution. Due to Chen Jiuzhi, volatile oils and other components were lost, which eased their medicinal properties.

Modern pharmacological studies have proven that the volatile oil contained in dried tangerine peel has the effects of aroma, stomach and draught; it can make sputum easy to spit out. This is consistent with its function.

On Chinese herbal medicines, tangerine peel is preferred for its bright color, high oil content, and rich aroma. Storage temperature should not exceed 20 °C to reduce the impact of the storage environment on its quality.

It can be seen that the long storage time of dried tangerine peel can cause volatile oil and other components to be lost, affecting its quality and efficacy. The idea of ​​"taking medicine as the best for Chen" deviates from the quality standards of modern implementation.
