Abstract:
The majority of people are aware of pearls, but their therapeutic benefits have not gained widespread recognition. This page summarizes pearls' 2,000-year medicinal history in China, including their use in traditional Chinese medicine and their many preparations, as well as the advancements in their chemical components, pharmacology, toxicology, and clinical research. In China, 251 prescription formulations and nine different nationalities employ pearls from three different sources as medical materials. Pearls also include a variety of organic and inorganic components, including amino acids and trace elements and calcium carbonate. Pearls are safe to consume for an extended period of time without causing any noticeable negative effects, according to toxicology. Clinically speaking, pearls have been used to treat a wide range of illnesses and ailments, including epilepsy, convulsions, palpitations, eye disorders, ulcers, skin disorders, and skin blemishes. This article serves as a resource for future pearl research and use.
