（一） R&D ideas (basis for project establishment)

1. Survey and analysis of the population suitable for the product to be developed at home and abroad

(1) Population composition, quantity, characteristics, trends, etc;

(2) Basis (epidemiological, nutritional and other research data).

2. Basic situation of similar products at home and abroad

(1) Category and quantity of similar products;

(2) Advantages and disadvantages, sales status and trend of similar products.

3. The expected health care function and scientific level of the new product

(1) Define functions;

(2) Basis.

4. Features or advantages and trends of products to be developed

(1) Features or advantages: functional characteristics, formula characteristics (compatibility) and mechanism characteristics, raw material characteristics, process characteristics, dosage form characteristics, quality control characteristics;

(2) Trend: demand (suitable for population expansion, product quality improvement, etc.).

（二） Health function screening and product testing

1. Formula screening

The scientific basis for explaining the function, mutual relationship and dosage of each raw material and auxiliary material in the formula. Pay attention to the incompatibility in the formula and its impact on human safety. There should be test records and original calculation data during the compatibility pre-test.

2. Description of raw materials in the formula

(1) The selection of raw materials (varieties of traditional Chinese medicine) shall comply with relevant regulations;

(2) Explain the efficacy and function of raw materials;

(3) Explain the reason for each raw material consumption;

(4) Explain the compatibility of each raw material;

(5) Explain the impact on human safety.

3. Selection of product form and dosage form

The form and dosage form of the product should be selected according to the characteristics of the product itself, which is easy to eat, absorb and preserve. Generally, the form and dosage form that can give full play to the health care function of the product are selected.

4. Determination of functional ingredients

(1) Effective ingredients: active substances with special physiological functions in the product, the key to the research of health food, and the main indicator of product quality;

(2) Health food raw materials;

(3) Determine the detection method of effective components;

(3) Replace functional ingredients with symbolic ingredients.

5. Research on product safety, stability and shelf life

（三） Expected effect

1. After the product enters the market, analyze the market prospect of the product. In the highly competitive health care product market, the scientific and technological content of the product, the predicted market share, the price positioning of the product, and the consumer orientation.

2. Assessment of possible social and economic benefits of the product

① The assessment of the product on the recovery of the targeted sub-health population;

② Solve the number of employees;

③ Carry out cost accounting, calculate the predicted sales volume and the paid interest and tax;

④ Export sales.
