[Research status and strategy of quality control of medicinal and edible food].

As China is implementing "Healthy China" strategy, medicinal and edible food has attracted unprecedented attention due to the dual attributes of food and medicine. However, there is a lack of the quality control standard and the existing quality control research cannot fully reflect the dual attributes of medicinal and edible food, which consequently restrict the development of medicinal and edible food industry. This study reviewed the research status and proposed the strategy of quality control in line with the dual attribu-tes of medicinal and edible food, and clarified the research contents of quality control of medicinal and edible food of different types to provide references for the follow-up quality control of medicinal and edible food.
