Authentic medicinal herbs are a conventional concept, an ancient standardization of medicine. It controls the quality of medicinal herbs through fixed production locations, processing, and sales, ensuring the authenticity and high quality of the herbs. This aligns with the three realms of TCM treatment: authenticity, freedom, and widespread patient acceptance. Its formation is the result of the combined effects of genotype and environmental changes, possessing quantitative characteristics, spatial characteristics, genetic characteristics, and efficacy characteristics.
