WHAT IS GOLDEN MOOR?
Golden Moor is a therapeutic mud. A
renowned Swiss naturopath of the Middle age used Moor Mud as a base for
preventive medicine. The therapeutic properties of Moor Mud have been
known for thousands of years. In 120 B.C., the Romans took advantage of
the curative powers of Moor Mud and Renaissance physicians praised it
as the Quinta Essentia. Scientific research has demonstrated that Moor
Mud is an effective astringent, absorbent, ion exchanger, hormone
balancer, anti-inflammatory, and cell regenerator.
For ages, Moor Mud has been used
successfully in spas all over Europe as a natural preventative medicine
because of its curative qualities. Modern scientific research has
uncovered new applications and techniques for Moor Mud in many
therapeutic treatments, particularly in the fields of Rheumatology and
Dermatology.
WHERE DOES GOLDEN MOOR MUD COME FROM?
At
the end of the last ice age, as the ice retreated, a fertile valley was
sealed off from the ouside world. This valley was quickly flooded and
an instant lake formed, covering all of the vegetation which had been
growing on the floor of the valley.
The quick water coverage of the plants
caused a unique biological and geological process. The plant life was
photosynthesized under the water, absorbing solar energy through
chlorophyll. This transformed the plants into solid cellulose. The
plant matter then underwent microbial decomposition to become deep,
rich, black magma.
The organic substances of the flora
submerged under the lake were well preserved by this slow, natural
process. An analysis of the magma, or organic mud which was created,
shows a truly unique collection of plants, minerals and trace elements
such as volatile oils, amino acids, waxes, resins, phyto-hormones,
vitamins, enzymes, and natural anti-biotics.
The natural lake source from which
Golden Moor Therapeutic Mud is extracted is totally protected from
pollution. The Moor Mud is collected from the bottom of the constantly
circulating, several metre deep thermal water. The Golden Moor Company
conducts the extraction and processing of Golden Moor Mud under the
strictest sterile conditions. Packaging of all Golden Moor Mud Products
is monitored by ongoing pharmaceutical and laboratory tests. All
products are guaranteed to be consistently of the highest quality.
