About the Dead Sea
One of the wonders of the world is the Dead Sea, which is 1200 feet below sea level.
Over millions of years, the hot dry air and high evaporation rate have contributed to
the high salt concentration present in the Dead Sea, making it one of the saltiest
lakes in the world. Compared to the 3% salt content of ordinary sea water, researchers
claim that the Dead Sea water contains 32% salts with relatively high concentration of
21 minerals such as magnesium, calcium, bromide and potassium. Twelve of these minerals
are found in no other sea or ocean.
Why have people been drawn to the minerals of this region for hundreds of years? Minerals
are essential for the metabolism of the skin. With age, the level of minerals in the body
is depleted. Researchers have found that the body no longer produces minerals on its own,
and must draw from an external source of supply. Minerals provide protection and strengthen
cell membranes against dehydration and environmental hazards.
