Freshly ground pearl powder is difficult to absorb. Pearl powder has beauty benefits and can be applied externally or taken internally. However, the main components of pearls, calcium carbonate and horn protein, are insoluble in water and difficult for the human body to absorb. Therefore, it is not advisable for some beauty-conscious women to take freshly ground pearl powder orally with water. Freshly ground pearl powder often has only a few dozen meshes, which is difficult to absorb and hurts the stomach and intestines when taken orally. It has not been disinfected and sterilized, so such pearl powder is not suitable for oral administration.

Pearl powder standards for internal use. The fineness of oral pearl powder processed by modern technology should be between 2000 and 10000 mesh. The larger the mesh number, the finer the particles. 200 mesh is about 75 microns, and 10000 mesh is about 1.3 microns. Water-soluble pearl powder processed by modern technology can dissolve in water, and the absorption rate can reach 50%~90%. Animal experiments have shown that long-term oral use of water-soluble pearl powder is safe. People seeking beauty should choose oral pearl powder products with national approval numbers and high quality. Pour 0.3 grams of pearl powder under the tongue, hold it in your mouth for 4 to 5 minutes, and then drink warm water.

Not everyone is suitable for taking pearl powder internally. Since pearl powder is a cool Chinese medicine, it is not suitable for everyone. It is only suitable for people with hot constitution. For people with weak and cold constitution (such as cold limbs, indigestion, etc.), long-term use of pearl powder will not only fail to strengthen the body and beautify the skin, but will also easily cause symptoms such as indigestion, diarrhea, cold limbs, and sallow complexion. Therefore, people who want to take pearl powder internally are advised to consult a Chinese medicine practitioner first. Women should stop taking pearl powder during menstruation.

If you take too much pearl powder, it will easily cause damage to your gastrointestinal health. Moreover, it is best not to take pearl powder for some women during their menstrual period.
