Where did amber come from and what properties does it have?
– unique fossilized material that came to us from the Cenozoic era. The resin of coniferous plants that grew 40-50 million years ago sealed the moments of that time for us. Over millions of years, amber has accumulated healing power, which modern people use in medicine.
This is a rather fragile stone of bright yellow color with various inclusions, it has from 3 to 7% content of succinic acid.
Amber heats up quickly enough and emits a pleasant coniferous aroma.
It is noteworthy that the stone burns quickly, is easily processed and changes color under the influence of solar radiation. Also, does not sink in seawater and has a high density.
The use of amber in medicine
It is known that untreated amber has a strong healing effect in the treatment of:
- diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract;
- pathologies of the musculoskeletal system;
- has a stimulating effect on the immune system;

What amber is made of and what heals
In terms of its chemical composition, amber is rather heterogeneous and has a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, succinic acid, oils and various resins, more than 40 compounds in total. The greatest value from a medical point of view is succinic acid and oil.

They have a complex effect on the body as a whole and separately on the nervous, cardiovascular and digestive systems.
Jewelry such as amber beads and amber bracelets help fight stress, depression and various inflammation. Succinic acid itself has a stimulating effect on the kidneys, liver, intestines.
In addition, acid helps people suffering from joint inflammation. In rheumatism, taking succinic acid or wearing jewelry made of untreated stone relieves pain, eliminates swelling in the joints.
Acid is also added to most multivitamin complexes, which are taken during the weakening of the body's defenses and can improve blood counts, raise tone.
The second component of amber is oil, which also copes well with free radicals, prevents premature cell death, and has a rejuvenating effect.
With age, regeneration processes slow down, wounds and cuts take longer to heal. Wearing amber helps to quickly restore damaged tissue, heal a fresh wound without leaving scars on the skin.
