[0090] Then the tea columns can be either directly used as medical composition or further packaged as tea bags for diabetes patients to brew and drink.
EXAMPLE 6
[0091] The method for preparing the medical composition comprising dried tangerine peels and Qiangliang tea or Bailiang tea of the present invention comprises: preparation of dried tangerine peels, preparation of dart tea, blend of the dried tangerine peels and the black tea, age of the tea bricks comprising the dried tangerine peels and dark tea, and addition of 10 parts (by weight) of dried tangerine peels.
1. Preparation of Dried Tangerine Peels
[0092] (1) Citrus fruits are placed indoors for 3 days or more after being picked so as to let the water in the citrus fruits loose to about 10-30% by cool breeze and to let the fruit skin absorb, as much as possible, the fruit juice;
(2) The fleshes of citrus fruits are scooped out and the skins of citrus fruits are peeled off;
(3) The peels of citrus fruits are dried under the sun;
(4) The peels of citrus fruits need to be turned over at least once during the drying process and after the turn-over, continue to be dried for about 5 days until they are completely dried;
(5) The dried peels of citrus fruits are placed and stored in a place at a temperature slightly higher than the average room temperature, such as placing them on the top floor of a house;
(6) The newly dried peels of citrus fruits need to be covered with moisture-proof woolen blanket or other moisture-proof covers in the humid climate;
(7) Dehumidifiers should be used to dehumidify when the humidity is very high;
(8) The peels of citrus fruits need to be dried again in the following summer time for 2 to 3 hours;
(9) After the secondary-time drying, the peels of citrus fruits are, again, put in a place with a temperature slightly higher than room temperature, such as the top floor of a house;
(10) The peels of citrus fruits after being dried for the secondary time are covered with moisture-proof woolen blanket or other moisture-proof covers in the humid climate;
(11) The peels of citrus fruits are dried under the sun for 2 to 3 hours again (the third time of drying of peels of citrus fruits) in the summer of the third year;
(12) The peels of citrus fruits after being dried for 3 times can be placed in a place of an average room temperature, but should not be placed in a cool and high humidity room, such as a basement;
(13) The peels of citrus fruits are dried again in the sun for 2 to 3 hours in summer time of the fourth year;
(14) When the peels of citrus fruits are then stored to the autumn of the fourth year, they become dried tangerine peels, and the total aging time for the peels of citrus fruits should be 3 years or more;
(15) The dried tangerine peels are placed into a porcelain jar with Yunnan ripened Pu'er tea at the ratio of 3:1 (by weight), and are preserved (Yang pi) for 2 to 3 years, resulting in the fact that the dried tangerine peels can fully generate flavonoids and various beneficial substances after the mutual absorption and trans-contamination between them in the porcelain jar;
(16) After the above-mentioned preservation, the dried tangerine peels are picked out from the Yunnan ripened Pu'er tea;
(17) The preserved dried tangerine peels are further aged for some different years, to become dried tangerine peels of 5 years old to 15 years old or more than 15 years old.
[0093] After the above-mentioned preparation, the dried tangerine peels are ready to be used as the raw materials of the traditional Chinese medicine composition in the present invention.

(3) The mixture of the human planting tea leaves and wild tea leaves is further aged for 2 to 5 years for future use.
3. Mixing of the Dried Tangerine Peels and the Black Tea Leaves
[0095] (1) The dried tangerine peels of 5 to 15 years old are smashed into small chips for use;
(2) The flaked dried tangerine peels are mixed with the above-mentioned blended and 2 to 5 years aged black tea at the ratio of 1 to 9 (by weight) in Spring and Autumn, wherein the black tea aged for 2 years accounts for 40% (by weight), the black tea aged for 3 years accounts for 30% (by weight), the black tea aging for 4 years accounts for 20% (by weight), and the black tea aged for 5 years accounts for 10% (by weight);
(3) The mixture is pressed into tea columns in the presence of steam, and the tea columns are wrapped up with dried reed leaves;
(4) The pressed and wrapped tea columns undergoes secondary fermentation in open air in Spring and Autumn time for about 50 days until the tea columns bloom golden flower.
4. Further Aging Process of the Tea Columns
[0096] (1) The tea columns comprising dried tangerine peels and dark tea are aged in a storehouse with a temperature slightly higher than room temperature for half a year in order to let the tea brick further produce fermented substances after the secondary fermentation;
(2) Then the tea columns comprising dried tangerine peels and dark tea are placed into porcelain jars with some dried tangerine peels of 5 or more years old at the mixing ratio of 8 to 2 (by weight), and the tea columns are aged for 1.5 years so that the tea columns can contact with the old tangerine peels to absorb beneficial substances and probiotic bacteria from the old tangerine peels.
5. Addition of Dried Tangerine Peels
[0097] (1) The 2-year aged tea columns comprising dried tangerine peels and dark tea are pulled apart;
(2) The loosed tea leaves are left in the air and oxidized naturally for 30 days at room temperature;
(3) 10 parts (by weight) of dried tangerine peels of more than 10 years old are smashed into particles or powder; and
(4) The dried tangerine peels smashed into particles or powder are mixed with the loose tea leaves.
