    Recently, according to the detection of 65 kinds of common traditional Chinese medicine samples by an environmental protection organization, more than 70% of the products contain pesticide residues, and some samples even contain banned pesticides Compared with the World Health Organization standard, some pesticide residues exceed the standard by more than 100 times It is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine for curing diseases and saving people, but a large number of pesticide residues are detected to exceed the standard This not only makes people who support traditional Chinese medicine feel faceless, but also makes the public feel confused and panic: where is such a serious pesticide residue coming from, how wide and how long has the problem of exceeding the standard occurred, and what harm will it do to human health? The reason why the problem of exceeding the standard is probably related to the source In order to reduce the cost, some farmers use a lot of pesticides in the planting process Although it promotes the production growth in the short term, it leads to frequent quality and safety problems "Good medicine is good" Once the quality and safety of the medicine itself cannot be guaranteed, or even the side effects caused by excessive agricultural residues, I'm afraid that no matter how serious the publicity is, it's hard to convince consumers At present, the standard of agricultural residue limit of traditional Chinese medicine is rarely scattered in China, which affects the production of traditional Chinese medicine to a certain extent The supply source of Chinese traditional medicine industry is too scattered and the entry threshold is too low We must improve the quality standard and safety access system, unify all kinds of complicated standards, and eliminate the backward ones, so that the safety of Chinese traditional medicine can be guaranteed At the same time, we will improve the access system, make enterprises more formal and competitive, and make more "casual soldiers" become regular troops Standardized operation and quantitative standards and sufficient scale may be one of the ways to solve the problem of drug safety.
