The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is one of China’s regions with the richest biodiversity. Tibetan medicinal herbs sourced from this plateau boast remarkable therapeutic effects and have played a vital role in safeguarding public health for thousands of years. However, along with the rapid development of the Tibetan medicine industry, there has emerged a trend of exploitative harvesting of certain Tibetan medicinal resources, leading to the gradual depletion of some medicinal resources and even placing them at risk of extinction. This, in turn, poses serious challenges to the sustainable development of the Tibetan medicine industry.
For Qizheng Tibetan Medicine, which embraces the philosophy of being a “modern inheritor of millennia-old Tibetan medicinal practices,” sustainably developing and utilizing Tibetan medicinal resources represents a long-term challenge for the company. Over more than two decades of development, the company has consistently focused on biodiversity conservation, placed great importance on resource surveys, and carried out extensive efforts to clarify and standardize the origins of its products. It has continuously optimized production processes and formulations to enhance the efficiency of medicinal material utilization. Moreover, the company actively pursues sustainable procurement practices in the regions where these resources originate. For the long term, it has been engaged in research and the establishment of conservation bases across three key areas: the protection of Tibetan medicinal materials, the study of Tibetan medicinal plant cultivation, and the wild restoration and management of Tibetan medicinal resources.
