Tea pills, in a modern context, are herbal remedies created from concentrated herbal extracts. These extracts are typically produced through a process of decoction (boiling) or water-alcohol extraction using stainless steel equipment, ensuring purity. The extraction process is kept at a low temperature (below 100°C/212°F) to preserve the integrity of the essential ingredients.
Here's a breakdown of their characteristics:
- Production Method: Herbs are extracted to create a concentrated liquid.
- Extraction Type: Water decoction or water-alcohol decoction.
- Temperature Control: Extracted at low temperatures to maintain ingredient quality.
- Concentration: The liquid is then often concentrated and combined with other ingredients.
- Form: The final product is then formed into small, round pills.
In essence, tea pills are a convenient and potent form of herbal medicine.
