Our nano-sized pearl powder processed into microscopic particles for enhanced absorption. Renowned for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine and skincare, pearl powder is celebrated for its rich mineral content, including calcium, magnesium, and amino acids.
The practice of using pearl powder is around 1500 years old. It has been used in many cultures around the world, but it’s highly valued in traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurvedic practices.
Pearl has a reputation as a beauty tonic, known to help prevent freckles and dark patches on the skin during ageing process. It can also stimulate Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. (SOD is a very important antioxidant defence against oxidative stress in the body.)
Organic pearl powder contains many minerals including calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, strontium, copper, selenium, silicon and more. It also contains many amino acids, which are required for health. Pearl powder may participate in DNA and RNA metabolic activities, which can support cell renewal. It also contains mucopolysaccharides, which have shown to prevent wrinkling and to increase libido in men and women.
Pearl is also known to be a Shen stabiliser in Chinese medicine, supporting mood, promoting peaceful spirit and quiet mind. It is also used to clear the liver of excess heat that may cause irritability and painful eyes.
Historically, harnessing the potent nutrients locked within natural pearls was a daunting task. Traditional methods fell short in breaking down these gems to a form where their benefits could be fully absorbed by the human body.
However, thanks to recent advancements in a technique known as "levigation," we can now process pearls to nearly nano-size particles. This method involves grinding high-grade pearls in water using a circular motion. The fine powder that becomes suspended in the water is separated from the heavier, non-suspended particles. This process is repeated until all the pearl powder is extracted, effectively separating the pearl's core impurity (the "seed") from the actual pearl powder. The solution with the suspended pearl is then allowed to settle, and the deposited pearl is dried. This "levigated" pearl powder is exceptionally fine and thus very easy for the human body to absorb, providing you with the maximum benefits of this precious ingredient.
Our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices is at the heart of Shoku Iku. We source our pearls from suppliers who adhere to strict ethical standards. This means that during the harvesting process, mussels are protected and carefully returned to their natural habitat, ensuring the sustainability of pearl farming and the health of the ecosystem.
Our pearl is fresh water pearl, harvested from Zhejiang province, the largest origin place of fresh water pearl in China.
