Methods:TCM heath care foods which were examined and approved after December12,1997 were searched from the official website of China Food and Drug Administration(CFDA). Excel2010 was used to establish one general database and seven sub-database(TCM sub-database,medicine property sub-database,medicine taste sub-database,meridian tropism sub-database,effect sub-database,medicine pair sub-database,triple-hybrid medicine sub-database)about TCM materials in the health care foods. Then frequency analysis was conducted on data from the seven sub-databases and the medicines whose using frequency is more than 1% were introduced into SPSS24 software,so as to proceed clustering analysis of the property,taste,channel tropism and major effects of the TCM by the hierarchical clustering method. Results:A total of 539 TCM heath care foods for improving sleep quality were searched out from the CFDA.

The top 3 medicines with the highest frequency were Suanzaoren(Ziziphy Spinosae Semen),Wuweizi(Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus) and Fuling(Poria). From the perspective of effect,the top 3 kinds of medicine with the highest frequency were tonifying medicines,tranquilizing medicines and liver-pacifying and wind-extinguishing medicines.

The medicines were mainly mild and their tastes were mainly sweet,bitter,sour and pungent. For the meridian tropism,the main meridian were liver,heart,spleen and kidney.

The medicines mainly acted on liver meridian,heart meridian,spleen meridian and kidney meridian.The 21 high-frequency medicines obtained from the data analysis could be used as core materials for health care foods for improving sleep quality,especially the first 6 shall be put more efforts to research and develop. In medicine compatibility,blood-nourishing and tranquilizing medicines has well compatibility with tonifying medicines and astringent medicines,as well as with liver-pacifying and wind-extinguishing medicines,and dampness-draining diuretic medicines. The treatment principles are as follows:Patients with deficiency syndrome could be treated by tonifying qi,nourishing blood and reinforcing yin.
