WHAT   MAKES   THE   DEAD   SEA  SPECIAL

What’s so Special about the Dead Sea

The waters of the Dead Sea contain 21 life-essential minerals. Many of these minerals are found in no other sea or ocean.

The Dead Sea distinguishes itself from the earth’s most bountiful sources by its lavish contents. In fact, this body of water contains 10 times more salts and minerals then the Mediterranean Sea, which is one of the richest, most fertile locations on the planet. These salts and minerals are recognized worldwide for their amazing therapeutic, nourishing and activating abilities.

Time is typically considered something that opposes us. In its course, our bodies become depleted from many life-essential minerals. This result in an acceleration of the aging process. Premature wrinkles, aches and pains, age spots and tiredness are a few of the resulting effect. Though, ironically, it is time itself which had enriched the Dead Sea with so many minerals and other rejuvenating essentials as well as its unique position of being the lowest inhabited location on earth (1,312 feet below sea level).

Since before the days of Cleopatra, people have travelled to the Dead Sea to soak up its minerals and heal their ailments. Even Cleopatra herself was reportedly enamoured with the Dead Sea’s amazing health benefits and used its distinctive minerals for her legendary beauty treatments.
