Benefits of Pearl

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Pearl is a beautiful jewelry and my grandmother have a good collection of them such as the Akoya pearls. Not only they can be use as jewel, but there are many benefits behind this jewel too.

The Chinese believes in the benefit of taking pearl powder, especially to cool the body heat. Some of my lady friends even take them monthly so that they can have nice smooth complexion.

According to Wikipedia, Pearl powder is a preparation of crushed pearls used in China for skin care, and in traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory and detoxification agent.

Pearl powder is a finely milled powder made from freshwater pearls, which contains a number of amino acids and several minerals. It is considered by its proponents to help improve the appearance of the skin.
