Today, with the increasing awareness of health, consumers have higher and higher quality requirements for Chinese medicinal materials such as Eucommia. As an industry practitioner, I deeply feel that the traditional supply chain model can no longer meet the needs of modern consumers for product traceability. The introduction of blockchain technology is bringing a profound change to this traditional industry.

Eucommia ulmoides is a precious Chinese medicinal material and health food raw material. Its main active ingredients include eucommia gum, eucommia polysaccharides, chlorogenic acid, and aucubin. The content and quality of these ingredients directly determine the efficacy and market value of Eucommia ulmoides. The growth environment of Eucommia ulmoides, especially the climatic conditions, greatly affects the accumulation of its active ingredients.

As an important raw material for traditional Chinese medicine and modern functional food, the choice of harvesting season for Eucommia ulmoides directly affects the quality and efficacy of the product. Years of field observation and laboratory analysis have shown that there is a clear difference in chemical composition between new leaves sprouting in spring and mature leaves in autumn, and this difference determines their most suitable application direction.

Today, with the increasing awareness of health, Eucommia extract is becoming a healthy choice for more and more people with its unique health value. As a company deeply engaged in the field of natural health, Sunsourcebio knows that quality is the lifeline of products. To this end, we have established a quality control system with 32 key indicators, using almost strict standards to ensure that every batch of Eucommia extract is trustworthy.

In recent years, as consumers' pursuit of skin care quality and efficacy has increased, functional cosmetics have gradually become the mainstream of the cosmetics market. Compared with traditional cosmetics, functional cosmetics not only have basic beauty effects, but also contain a variety of effective active ingredients, achieving whitening, anti-wrinkle, sun protection, acne and other effects.

As a vital medicinal herb and health ingredient, the quality and active components of *Eucommia ulmoides* (duzhong) are directly influenced by its growth environment. Among these factors, soil pH value and mineral composition play pivotal roles in determining plant health, growth rate, and the accumulation of bioactive compounds. Through scientific research and optimized agricultural practices, we can enhance duzhong’s quality by fine-tuning soil conditions.
