Abstract
Processing is one of the important and crucial parts that has been applied in traditional oriental medicine for a long time. The traditional ingredients were processed on the basis of the Yin Yang theory, Five Elements theory, and folk experiences. Among many processing techniques, honey-frying is a process enhancing the effects of traditional herbs on the Spleen and Stomach organs. This report provides an overview of the differences between chemical constituents and pharmacological activities of some traditional ingredients before and after roasting with honey.
