Dead Sea Minerals

The Dead Sea contains about 45,000 million tons of salt. The salt is rich in minerals. The Dead Sea contains twenty-six minerals. Twelve of those twenty-six don't exist in any other water-body in the world. Some of these minerals are known for having special properties such as providing relaxation, deep-cleansing the skin, increasing blood circulation and easing skin and rheumatic conditions.

Only four percent of body weight is minerals. Even so, they're of vital importance, affecting cell functioning. They also affect bone building, production of blood, activation of hormones and much more.

Like vitamins minerals aren't produced by the body and the body therefore depends on an external supply of minerals. Mineral deficiency can upset skin cell activity, lead to inflammation, dryness of the skin and premature aging.

Calcium is the main component of the skeleton making it an important mineral for the body. It strengthens cell membranes and cleans pores. A vital mineral for healthy teeth and bones and regulation of heart muscles and nerves.

Sulfur helps build cells and plays an essential role in the absorption process of vitamins in the body. It kills bacteria, cleans the blood and detoxifies the liver.
