On 8 October, CAS Academician HE Jifeng, along with others, visited ShouXianGu located at China Hot Spring Health Ecological Industry Demonstration Zone, Wuyi County, Zhejiang Province, to explore why the dendrobium officinale and ganoderma lucidum, which are in the list of “Nine Cure-All Herbs in China”, are honored as the “genuine” TCM after breed selection, planting and processing. ShouXianGu’s Chairman LI Mingyan and Executive Vice President WANG Ying were present at site throughout the visit. 

Researcher LI Mingyan decrypted each link of the full industrial chain of TCM in ShouXianGu. Academician HE and his entourage not only experienced the clean air, clear water and green and organic wild-imitated cultivation method of the Longevity Valley Organic TCM Base, but also had a profound perceptual understanding of the Longevity Valley’s TCM production mode of “control over every link from the source to ensure its products’ safety and efficacy, stability and controllability”.

In the ShouXianGu TCM Cultural Center and Quality Assurance and R&D Testing Center, researcher LI Mingyan elaborated the concept of concordance between “heaven, earth and mankind” held by ShouXianGu, gave a introduction to pedigree and protective innovation and development outcomes of the national intangible cultural heritage project of “ShouXianGu’s TCM processing techniques”, as well as breakthroughs brought by organic integration of traditional techniques and modern high technologies. Academician HE and his entourage smiled and spoke highly of the inheritance, innovation and development results of the company. 

They highly appraised the research and development, advantages and scientific principles of the internationally leading technology – the third-generation sporoderm-removal technology for ganoderma lucidum spore powder.

During the inspection, CAS Academician HE did not forget to give advice and suggestions to Longevity Valley, hoping that the company may keep on with its original intention, continuing to build the first brand of organic TCM in China and making greater achievements and contributions to the cause of public health.
