JPS62212319A - Bathing agent of medicinal herb impregnated with mineral substance - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:A mineral substance-containing bathing agent having both effects of medicinal herb and mineral substance, obtained by impregnating medicinal plant with a mineral substance solution and drying. CONSTITUTION:Plural medicinal herbs naturally growing are independently dried, respectively, cut and ground. The ground medicinal herbs are weighed and blended to give medicinal herb powder. On the other hand, mineral substance-containing hot spring or cold spring is concentrated to give a concentrated solution of mineral substance. The medicinal herb powder is blended with the concentrated solution of mineral substance and impregnated with the solution for a fixed time. The impregnated medicinal herb powder is dried to give a medicinal herb bathing agent. >=30wt% calculated as dry weight based on total amounts of the medicinal herb powder is used to give the medicinal herb bathing agent. Licorice root, Japanese angelica root, sinomenium, cnidium, Cyperi Rhizoma, etc., may be cited as the medicinal herbs and they provide the body with nutrition of medicinal component indirectly. On the other hand, the mineral substance is directly effective for affected parts of skin diseases, bruises, sprains, etc.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is directed to a medicinal plant containing minerals produced by soaking medicinal plants that grow naturally in mountains and fields in mineral solutions called hot spring water and cold spring water and drying them. This article describes herbal bath additives and their manufacturing method.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, many types of bath additives have been commercially available, which are made by cutting and pulverizing several types of medicinal herbs and then storing them in a bag-like container. . There are also so-called hot spring water and cold spring water, which are liquid or powdered mineral solutions that are dried and concentrated, and are generally used as bath additives.

In general, the effects of medicinal plants and minerals on health through the skin are fundamentally different. In the case of medicinal herbs, they have the characteristic of providing medicinal nutrients to the body indirectly through the skin, and the medicinal herbs that are often used as bath additives include licorice, touki, bowi, senkyu, kobushi, kouka, chinpi, and matsufu. There is something. On the other hand, mineral substances have the characteristic of being directly effective on affected areas such as skin diseases, bruises, and sprains.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] The effects of herbal bath additives are different from the effects of mineral bath additives, and bath additives that have both the effects specific to medicinal herbs and mineral substances are However, there were drawbacks such as the need to use herbal bath additives and mineral bath additives depending on the symptoms.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a bath agent that has both the effects specific to medicinal herbs and the effects specific to mineral substances.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention involves independently drying, cutting and pulverizing a plurality of medicinal herbs, and weighing and blending each of the pulverized medicinal herbs. A medicinal herbal powder is produced, on the other hand, a mineral concentrate is produced by concentrating hot spring water or cold spring water containing minerals, and the mineral concentrate is mixed with the medicinal herbal powder and impregnated for a certain period of time. Then, the impregnated herbal powder is dried to produce a herbal bath, and the herbal bath is weighed and packaged. % or more of the constituent components.

[Example] An embodiment according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

The medicinal herbs used as bath additives are licorice and licorice.

There are many other medicinal herbs such as bouki, but multiple medicinal herbs are used to vary the effects. Selected medicinal herbs A1, medicinal herbs A2
, the medicinal herbs A3 go to step 1, where they are each independently dried and then ground. Crushed medicinal herbs A1 + medicinal herbs A2. The medicinal herbs A3 are weighed and made into approximately equal amounts in step 2, and the medicinal herbal powders A are produced by calculating and blending the medicinal herbs in an amount of about 5 to 20 g per bag used twice.

On the other hand, there are many types of hot spring water B1 containing mineral substance B, but in the present invention, medicinal herbs AI! Medicinal herbs A2. Medicinal herbs A3
Since it is used in conjunction with other products, we use products that have effects that those other products do not have. Sulfur and radium springs.

As long as it's carbonated springs, there's no problem. In step 3, the hot spring water B1 containing the mineral substance B is concentrated until the viscosity becomes just like candy, producing a mineral concentrate liquid B2.

The herbal powder A produced in step 2 is mixed with mineral concentrate B2 in step 4 and impregnated for a certain period of time, and dried in step 5 to produce herbal bath agent C containing mineral B. . The herbal bath additive C is weighed in step 6 and then packaged to become a product, which is then put on sale.

In step 4, since the herbal powder A itself is in a dry state, it is best to impregnate it for at least several hours, preferably 24 hours or more, but the herbal powder A is 30% by dry weight.
It is better to set the ratio above. Therefore, herbal bath additive A is 60
Although a ratio of approximately % by weight is acceptable, since the aim is for the herbal powder A and the mineral substance B to have the same effect, the blending ratio may be determined in consideration of the content of the mineral substance B. It is probably best to mix the herbal powder A and the mineral B in an equal mass range.

There is no problem if the cutting and pulverizing process is performed before the drying process, but if it is performed after the drying process, the rate of fine pulverization will be high.
It is better to use it after drying if possible.

Further, the cutting and crushing treatment may be performed before or after weighing.

Although it is made into a product after drying, there are no particular problems in terms of effectiveness even when it is wet. However, since it is easy to handle during packaging, it is manufactured after drying.

As for the effects of the medicinal herbs themselves, there is no part that is eluted during the manufacturing process, so there is no reduction in the effectiveness of the medicinal herbs themselves. or,
There is no problem with mineral substances as they are concentrated.

[Effects] Since the herbal bath salt produced according to the present invention contains both medicinal herbal components and mineral components, the medicinal herbal component is effective against heat rash, roughness, eczema, chilblains, and hemorrhoids.

It is effective against sores and sensitivity to cold, while the mineral content is effective against stiff shoulders, neuralgia, rheumatoid arthritis, lower back pain, bruises, and sprains, and can have a wide range of effects on each symptom. There is no longer a need to use different bath salts depending on the symptoms.
