title: [Development of healthy beverage from Eucommla ulmoides foliage].
abstract: Effective compositions of Eucommla ulmoides foliage, sampled from the south side west section of the Qinling Mountain area, are analyzed qualiatively and quantitatively. It is shown that the foliage contains plenty of mineral elements, seventeen amino acids, proteins, sugars, alkaloids, flavonoids, aucubin, chlorogenic acid, pinoresinol diglucoside, coffeic acid juice and Jingniping glucoside. Based on the analysis and the main material of Eucommla ulmoides foliage, a healthy beverage functioning especially on resisting tire actions is formulated and produced. This work has provided a dependable new idea for further exploitation and utilization of the natural resources.
