Gioia's little cousin Graeme came to visit wearing a rather interesting black beaded necklace (see blog below this one). Other than making him look like a cool surfer baby this Baltic Amber necklace serves a fascinating purpose. According to google there has been a “buzz” regarding the amazing ability of Natural Baltic Amber as a pain reliever and immune system booster for adults and children. The latest is the startling qualities of Baltic Amber teething necklace popular in Europe and Asia, these necklaces are now being highly regarded by parents all over the world as replacements for pain medicine. Amber's anti-inflammatory and therapeutic properties are recognised by allopathic medicine as a natural analgesic, which will help to relieve teething pain and calm a baby without resorting to meds. Baltic Amber reduces inflammation caused by teething when worn close to the skin and promotes a stronger immunity to common infections as well as assisting general well-being.
The warmth from the skin releases the active ingredient in the Baltic Amber, succinic acid, a resin, which is absorbed into the bloodstream. Recent scientific research has proved that succinic acid has a very positive influence on the human body. It improves immunity and the balance of acids when absorbed into the bloodstream, it stimulates the thyroid glands to help reduce drooling and soothes red inflamed cheeks.
The active ingredient succinic acid is fossilised resin produced by plants 40 – 50 million years ago. In nature the resin would have been used by the tree as a natural antibiotic against infection, viruses and physical attack. The tree would use the resin like a plaster or wound dressing. Now the resin has been fossilised, its healing properties have been captured in the resin which are release once the amber has been warmed.
