METHOD FOR PRODUCING ANGELICAE GIGANTIS RADIX WITH INCREASED DECURSIN OR DECURSINOL ANGELATE CONTENT AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY USING FAR-INFRARED IRRADIATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing Angelicae gigantis radix with an increased decursin or desursinol angelate content and antioxidant activity, which is characterized by irradiating far-infrared rays to Angelicae gigantis radix; Angelicae gigantis radix with an increased decursin or desursinol angelate content and antioxidant activity manufactured thereby, and food or beverage including the same. As such, the production of farmers and the added value can be increased by providing functional materials for improving health in a novel form, which has an increased content of decursin or decursinol angelate in Angelicae gigantis radix.
