| Will calculus be produced when pearl powder is taken? |
No calculus will be produced when a kind of pearl powder with genuine high quality is taken. Scientists found that lack of calcium is the major reason of calculus production after a long time of epidemiology study. The main component of kidney stone is calcium oxalate, and the oxalic acid can easily combine the calcium in human’s bodies and produce calcium oxalate which is unsolvable, thus form a calculus when the oxalic acid is over normal level in human’s bodies. Pearl powder is rich in calcium. The calcium ions released from the pearl powder can combine with the oxalic acid in intestines when the pearl powder is taken, then unsolvable calcium oxalate is formed and ejected from the body. So that the oxalic acid can be prevented from being absorbed to human’s bodies. Therefore, occurrence ratio of kidney stone can be reduced (by reducing the combination of oxalic acid and calcium ions in human’s body).  |
| Why some kinds of pearl powder make people feel very rough? |
| These kinds of pearl powder are quite rough, and they are probably fake products with poor quality. Because, pearl powder never senses obviously like sands even it is 200 mu. These kinds of pearl powder should be avoided as much as possible. Massage of these kinds of pearl powder on skin should be avoided, and clear water mask mode is forbidden when these kinds of pearl powder are inevitably applied. |
| Why most kinds of nanometer pearl powder are grayish? |
The diameter of each grain of nanometer pearl powder is less than 100 nm, so the light-reflecting area is too less for it to reflect much light. So the color of the powder looks dark. Some kinds of pearl powder are not really of nanometer even they are claimed as nanometer, for they are still snow-white. Another example is gold. The grains of gold are no longer golden when they are of nanometer. What is their color? The answer is black, which can never be imagined by you!
But, along with the development of technology, a few factories have invented a process technology of fishy smell removing and whitening on nanometer pearl powder based on original technology so far. Namely, to change nanometer pearl powder process field by new technology, meanwhile, eliminate inherent fishy smell and odor by physical technology. It was known that there are few factories in China who master this technology.

| Is it ok for the grain of externally applied pearl powder to be a bit big? |
| Actually, the finer the externally applied pearl powder the better. The absorption ability of skin is extremely poor, therefore, the finer the externally applied pearl powder, the easier the absorption of human’s bodies. So that I suggest the readers to take nanometer pearl powder. Testified by experiments, the skin-permeating absorption ratio of nanometer pearl powder is 6-8 times that of 7,200 mu (about 2 nm) ultra-fine pearl powder, and the absorption ratio can increase along with the extension of time. In addition, as stated in the answer for question 2, injury on skin corneum can be avoided when fine pearl powder is chosen to be used. So people should be careful on externally applied pearl powder. |
| Is pearl powder really nutritious? It was heard that it functions like a conduit only, is that true? |
| Pearl powder is really rich in nutrients. This is why it can maintain skin except cleaning it. Testified by modern research, pearl powder contains a lot of microelements such as calcium, magnesium, phosphor, zinc etc, and 18 kinds of amino acid (including 7 kinds of necessary amino acid—they cannot be composed by human’s body, must be taken from outside), many kinds of short chains, vitamin B complex and the porphyrin substance which is anti-aging. And other substances like light base amino acid, alkaline phosphate etc as well. |
| Shall pearl powder be taken before or after meals? |
| Pearl powder is a natural and gentle health care product. It is ok for people to take it under the principle of timed, fixed quantity and continuity. And it can be taken either before or after meals in general. But it is suggested to be taken after meals for the people who have a symptom of stomach cold. |
| Whom the pearl powder is not applicable to? |
Generally, pearl powder is applicable for healthy people (either be taken internally or applied externally). Few people are probably allergic to pearl powder, so they cannot apply pearl powder externally. The people with following diseases should be careful of taking pearl powder or better not take it: extreme hypotension, taking medicine of digitoxin, renal failure, gastric disease of lack of gastric acid, iron deficiency anemia, severe stomach cold, bladder cancer.
The people whose bodies are in specific conditions, such as children, pregnant women, should observe doctor’s order when they want to take pearl powder. The children should observe doctor’s order because the bones of children will be calcified early if calcium is taken excessively, thus influence their heights. Therefore, it should be decided by doctor according to result of health check whether the pearl powder can be taken and the volume. |
| How should pearl powder be preserved? |
| Pearl powder should be stored airtight in hidden cool and dry places. No entry of impurity or bacteria, avoiding moisture and agglomeration.
|
| What is water soluble pearl powder? |
| Generally, water soluble pearl powder is produced by the following process: to process the pearl powder with acid (mostly lactic acid) or enzyme, make unsolvable CaCO3 into soluble calcium lactate, some unsolvable components are thrown away, then crystallize again. The water soluble pearl powder is no longer a genuine pearl powder after the chemical process. Its composition has been changed significantly, and it is mainly for calcium supplement in terms of function.
|
| Does genuine nanometer pearl powder really exist? |
| The answer is YES! Of course genuine nanometer pearl powder does exist. At present, Zhejiang Osm Group Bio-tech Co. Ltd. is the only corporation in the world which really produces nanometer pearl powder in big scale. Its product, the absolute natural nanometer pearl powder, has been listed in new and hi-tech products of Zhejiang Province and the category of key new products of China. And it has been supported by national Ministry of Technology, Ministry of Agriculture, Development and Reform Committee, Ministry of Finance and each office and bureau of Zhejiang Province successively. The average diameter of grains of the nanometer pearl powder is about 100 nm, examined by authorized organization with CMA examination and authentication qualification.
|
| Is the major component of pearl powder CaCO3? |
| There is nothing wrong when it is expressed in brief. But there is a big difference when we study it on the existence of CaCO3. The calcium in pearls exists in form of complexed or chelated with numerous multi-chains, amino acids. It does not exist simply in the form of CaCO3. The absorption and absorption ratio of its calcium are entirely different from that of simple CaCO3. Therefore, the calcium in pearls is called “organic calcium” or “free calcium”.
