Zhang Zheng continued: "Brother Fu, have you seen it? Many of the drugs in Western medicine are derived from animals and plants like traditional Chinese medicine, so it is not correct to say that Western medicine is all chemical medicine. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info(?八〈[一(网》

"Oh, so that's the case, the question is that as soon as this Yang comes, isn't Western medicine and Chinese medicine the same?" Fu Cheng said.

"The raw materials may be the same, but the pharmaceutical mechanism is completely different," Zhang said. Western medicine is the use of modern scientific and technological methods to purify and crystallize the useful ingredients in the medicinal materials, that is, the chemical components, into tablets, and provide them to patients for use. Traditional Chinese medicine is much simpler, either directly into the herb branches, leaves, stems into medicine, or processed into powder into capsules and tablets, provided to patients to take......"

"Ahh I didn't expect Chinese medicine to be so different from Western medicine? Fu Cheng was surprised.

Zhang Zheng said: "Brother Fu, the real difference between the two is still to come." Due to the different manufacturing processes, even if the medicine comes from the same plant, the efficacy and volume of the two are completely different. The curative effect of a piece of Western medicine may top a truckload of Chinese medicine curative effect, which is why everyone generally feels that Western medicine has a fast curative effect and a ...... curative effect of Chinese medicine."

Fu Cheng said: "Oh, after listening to Brother Zhang's popular science, I finally understand why the effect of traditional Chinese medicine is too slow, and the reason why the effect of Western medicine is obvious. People are to refine the chemical ingredients in the medicinal materials to make medicines for patients to use, while our traditional Chinese medicine is provided to patients with the original flavor, of course, this 'branch' is the branch of the branch. I've always had a puzzle about why after taking multiple courses of treatment, eating almost a sack of Chinese herbal medicine, it didn't work, but after taking a few pills, it quickly took effect, and the reason was here. ”

"Brother Zhang, since there is such a big difference in efficacy due to different processes, why doesn't traditional Chinese medicine extract active ingredients like Western medicine? Isn't our technology up to par? Jin Jiayan asked.

Zhang Zheng said: "It's not a technical problem, it's a conceptual problem. Our Chinese nation is a nation that pays attention to tradition, and pays attention to the things left by our ancestors, which must be passed on as they are, so as to appear orthodox, otherwise it will be a great rebellion. In today's industrialization, a few big brothers might as well take a look at our so-called time-honored pharmaceutical companies, aren't they still holding an 'old' word as a selling point? ”

"You're right, many of our time-honored pharmaceutical companies' products are not only keen to highlight the word 'old', but also take pride in the original flavor for hundreds or thousands of years, I wonder, if they are all so 'old' as good and unchanged, then why should they innovate? Wouldn't it be better to be 'old' and innovative? Jin Jiayan said.

"Actually, when it comes to this 'old' word, the Chinese medicine industry is really nothing, and some time-honored brands in the catering industry are called powerful?" Zhang Maosheng, the owner of the time-honored enterprise 'Jufengde' restaurant in Jibei City, said.

"Oh, Manager Zhang, isn't it? It seems that so far, the oldest time-honored brand in our Huaxia catering industry is only a few hundred years, right? Compared with the inheritance of hundreds or even thousands of years in the Chinese medicine industry at every turn, what is so powerful? The Jin family said strictly.

Boss Zhang said, "Mr. Jin is right, so far, the oldest well-documented catering enterprise in our country's catering industry is the cheap roast duck restaurant, which has a history of 563 years. When I say powerful, I don't mean how powerful the history of these time-honored brands is, but that some time-honored companies are bragging about their hard work. ”

"Boss Zhang, do you mean that they boast that their dishes are delicious, good-looking, and delicious? It's normal to do this, you can't let people brag about their food being unpalatable, ugly, and smelly, right? Jin Jiayan said.

"Haha, of course it's normal for the catering industry to advertise its own dishes, but the problem is that it's not good to publicize excessively, for example, some time-honored brands have promoted their old soup for a hundred years or even a thousand years in order to highlight their own 'old' word, Mr. Jin, you say, do you believe it?" Zhang Maosheng asked.

"I believe it, for example, when I arrived in Xi'an, I went to Chang'an Restaurant to eat old soup mutton steamed buns, and when I arrived in Beijing, I went to eat old soup Mengji belly and Yuesheng Zhai's old soup stewed mutton, etc., anyway, I especially like that mellow taste." Jin Jiayan said.

"Haha."

"Boss Zhang, what are you laughing at?"

Boss Zhang said: "Mr. Jin, people have money to buy health, and you have money to buy short life." ”

"Oh, I said Boss Zhang, what do you mean by that?" Jin Jiayan asked.

"Mr. Jin, should you know what ingredients are in the soup?" Zhang Maosheng asked.

Jin Jiayan said: "Of course I know, isn't it just all kinds of animal bones and all kinds of spices?" ”

"In fact, in addition to these things, there should be food additives, mainly used for preservatives, in order to facilitate preservation. Of course, all the food additives used in time-honored brands are regular products permitted by the state, and everyone can use them with confidence and there will be no problems. Zhang Maosheng said.

"That is to say, these old soups are safe, so why do you still say that I have the money to buy a short life?" The Jin family asked puzzled.

"Mr. Jin, do you know why the food stewed with these old soups feels mellow?" Zhang Maosheng asked.

"I can't really say yet. Boss Zhang, you have been doing catering for decades, and this knowledge is definitely very rich, so you can popularize it for everyone. Jin Jiayan suggested.

"Old soup is mainly made from animal bones, and the ingredients are mainly carbohydrates, proteins and fats, which are eventually broken down into simple sugars, amino acids and fatty acids in the food. When the temperature rises, these substances will produce aldehydes, lactones and furans with aroma characteristics, and when the temperature reaches a certain level after continuous boiling, pyrazines, pyrroles and pyridines with roasting aroma will be generated, so a rich mellow aroma is formed in the old soup. ”

"Ahh The process of boiling old soup turned out to be a chemical reaction process, right? No wonder the old soup has to be boiled constantly, it turns out that this is the reason? Jin Jiayan said in surprise.

"You're right, the more times you boil it, the longer it takes, the more mellow the aroma becomes, which is why the operator uses the word 'old' as a selling point." Zhang Maosheng explained.

"There's nothing wrong with that, and it's true." Jin Jiayan said.

"Mr. Jin, don't patronize the delicious and mellow taste of the broth, but there are still many ingredients in it that affect your health?"
