Past 60 Years Of New China, Traditional Chinese Medicine Industry

New China was founded 60 years ago, Chinese medicine industry has developed significantly. In this regard, China Chinese Medicine Association, honorary president, the former State Pharmaceutical Administration Deputy Director Zhang Hongkui in many thoughts and feelings. He said that 60 years, the development of Chinese medicine can be divided into two phases, the planned economy 30 years of reform and opening up 30 years.

The planned economy era, medicine is only one state dominating the world, managing death in short supply. After the reform and opening to enter the market economy era, the situation greatly improved commodity scarcity, the production have been developed, operating channels, but also a greater, the market becomes more active, people buy medicine more convenient.

 

Zhang Hongkui in the field of medicine for many years, he considered that Chinese medicine is a traditional industry, although generally known as "Chinese Medicine", but the content is very rich, including Chinese herbs, Chinese Herbal Pieces, the three pillars of Chinese medicine.

 

Medicinal plant stress authentic

 

Chinese medicinal herbs cultivation is the foundation of Chinese medicine industry. Zhang Hongkui said that for years they have been planted by Chinese herbal medicine as a basic task of production to ensure market supply and Pieces Chinese medicine production, and export needs.

 

The medicine whether "authentic" is really an important factor reflects the quality of traditional Chinese medicine. Zhang Hongkui said, an area of soil, water and other natural and medicinal materials processing methods is a long form features. Authentic representative of the quality advantages of both medicines, but also brands. Firmly grasp the authentic production of medicines, traditional Chinese medicine has become the most important task.
 

With the increase in the amount of Chinese medicine in application, as well as cutting Lankan chaos, many native medicinal herbs, wild herbs yields. To change this situation, Zhang Hongkui that change can only take wild home-grown approach. To condition the right place, namely, the origin of native medicinal plant, so that cost of inputs is small, can play a multiplier role.

 

Pieces must be well cooked

 

Zhang Hongkui that Pieces of Chinese medicine production is truly embody Chinese characteristics, and hence Pieces cooked up to be quite stringent, the stir-fried, steamed in the steaming, the Sunburn of the Sunburn, can not have the slightest careless. Pieces Now many people say that quality is not high, and there are two reasons, one of the original ingredients are not authentic, and second, processing of cooked well enough. Zhang Hongkui said, Pieces cooked first, in order to reduce toxicity, and second, in order to increase efficacy and produce no sperm, it is impossible to achieve the desired effect and may even be unable to treat disease.

 

Focus on the development of co-ordination with the Chinese

 

Zhang Hongkui that, while many of Chinese medicine using modern technology, borrowed from western medicine formulations to meet the social development needs, but also the results of the development of medical technology. However, traditional Chinese medicine the development of new drugs and new formulations should remain with the guidance of TCM theory.

 

Zhang Hongkui said that China now exports of traditional Chinese medicine for 10 years, more than one billion dollars, but should be seen mainly in the exporting of Chinese medicine in Southeast Asia, while Europe and the United States market is relatively small. East-West cultural differences, so that people accept our culture, it is difficult. And if culture can not be accepted, Chinese medicine is difficult to be accepted. Therefore, should promote Chinese culture, and then in order to promote Chinese medicine. Zhang Hongkui suggested the publicity campaign to promote the Chinese culture.

 

In addition, Zhang Hongkui think that education on Chinese medicine is also an important issue. According to tradition, the Chinese doctor is to bring out the master, or well-known, there is a word and deed, tacit understanding of the practice of the process. In fact, traditional Chinese medicine, too, rely on the theory of books is to train not come out a real talent in Chinese medicine, which is characteristic of Chinese medicine industry, but also the characteristics of Chinese culture.

 

Changes in production methods and improve the overall level of production, industrial output value of Chinese medicine from 1978 to 8 billion RMB to 1,400 billion in 2008.
