Natural Baltic amber is highly valued for its healing and rejuvenating properties. Fossilized resin is a high-molecular compound of organic acids that help to eliminate toxins from the body. Oriental healers used amber for protection during plague and cholera epidemics. In our time, amber tincture has become widespread, which helps fight infections, relieves inflammation and strengthens the nervous system.
Healing properties of amber
Amber is the hardened resin of coniferous trees that grew millions of years ago. Mineraloid deposits were developed already in ancient times in Egypt, Phoenicia and in the eastern regions of the Baltic. Fossil resin contains a high concentration of succinic acid, which is naturally produced by the body and restores cells damaged by muscle stress, infections and toxins.
The properties of succinic acid were first investigated by microbiologist Robert Koch in 1886. The scientist found that a deficiency of a substance causes a deterioration in well-being and a decrease in the body’s resistance to disease. In the 1960s, Soviet scientists studied succinic acid in order to create drugs to increase endurance. It is known that tablets based on succinic salts (succinates) were highly valued by the party elite – a secret medicine at that time neutralized the effects of alcohol, which made it possible to drink alcohol without consequences and quickly remove a hangover.
Succinic acid is a powerful antioxidant and biostimulant. Scientists have found that the salts of the substance take part in the Krebs cycle – the transition point from catabolism (decay) to anabolism (synthesis). Under unfavorable conditions, acid particles unmistakably find the affected cell, penetrate into it and start recovery processes, therefore, dietary supplements with succinates are used in the treatment of a whole range of diseases.
Preparations based on amber salts:
- strengthen immunity and prevent seasonal diseases;
- restore the nervous system;
- improve performance;
- activate insulin production in type 2 diabetes;
- prevent cell aging;
- help with thyroid diseases;
- inhibit the development of tumors.
Succinic acid is widely used to treat alcohol addiction. The drug significantly accelerates the breakdown of ethanol in the blood, so detoxification is faster. Succinate accelerates metabolism and has a positive effect on liver cells, which contributes to the removal of alcohol breakdown products from the body. The drugs significantly alleviate the hangover syndrome – at home, it is recommended to combine the intake of succinic acid with enemas.
