Baltic amber Jewelry - Review

About a month ago I purchased a Baltic amber necklace from Inspired By Finn Here's a little bit about them: Our Baltic amber jewelry is a unique piece of history.  The amber beads are fossils from an ancient forest which existed tens of millions of years ago.  Baltic amber is not a stone, but a fossilized tree resin. For centuries, Baltic amber has been used in Europe as a natural and traditional remedy and curative for many ailments and discomforts. Long ago it was considered one of the leading medicines of its time. Baltic amber is the most esteemed amber in the world, and the healing qualities of Baltic amber make it unlike any other type of amber found in the world. It is said that when Baltic amber is worn on the skin, the skin's warmth draws trace amounts of healing oils out of the amber.  These oils contain succinic acid and are absorbed into the skin.  Baltic amber has some of the highest concentrations of succinic acid found in nature, and this is what makes it so special. Succinic acid is a natural component of plant and animal tissues, and its presence in the human body is beneficial in many ways. How can Baltic amber help us? Relief of Discomfort  Baltic amber is worn by our customers for a number of health and wellness benefits.  It contains analgesic properties and helps take the edge off of the discomfort and symptoms associated with:  dental issues (such as the emergence of new teeth, orthodontic brace adjustments, TMJ), growing pains, allergies, sensory disorders associated with autism, headaches and migraines, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck and shoulder discomfort, tendonitis, menstrual cramping, restless leg syndrome, back and knee discomfort, joint pain from chemotherapy, and many more.  In order to be effective Baltic amber must usually be close to the site of the discomfort.  For example, a necklace would not necessarily/likely be effective for growing pains in the legs.  For this we would recommend an ankle bracelet.  Strengthens the body's immune system  In many different and subtle ways, succinic acid helps boost the body's own natural healing ability and immune system. Restoring Energy The human body naturally produces succinic acid. The salt of succinic acid (succinate) is one of the most active substances in the processes of cellular respiration and intercellular energy creation. Succinic acid restores oxygen and energy supply to depleted cells and helps the body return to a normal, functioning state. Succinate is a raw material and a catalyst in the Krebs Cycle which is one of our main sources of energy. During the Krebs Cycle carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are metabolized for energy. Maintaining Wellness  When the human body reacts to stress, the body's cells begin to use oxygen more quickly. Oxygen plays a central role in the intercellular creation of energy and a lack of oxygen can result in feeling lethargic. Oxygen is alkaline-forming in the blood and maintaining a slightly alkaline blood pH helps keep us healthy. Whenever the body functions in a state of low oxygen, it is much more susceptible to illness. To help break a cycle of (chronic) inflammation  Where chronic inflammation is present, disease lurks. When the body's cells are chronically inflamed the human body's immune system response is to increase production of free radicals. Chronic overproduction of free radicals results in inflammatory-related disease. Chronic inflammation is a common denominator of many seemingly unrelated diseases. While wearing a piece or two of Baltic amber jewelry may not cure all that ails you, it has been a proven benefit to many!  That my boy wearing his he's so cute. But anyway here's what I think.. I purchased the necklace because my son is teething still so I firgured what the heck maybe this will help him stop drooling and hurting. He's been wearing it for about a month now, I don't see much of a different but he really doesn't drool as much and he hasn't told me his teeth hurt anymore. I'm still not convinced.. I think maybe he needs to wear it longer, I'll update this in a few months and see if there's any difference.
