Is the “chromium” in jade really poisonous?

The colors of all jewelry and jadeite have their own coloring elements. The green of jadeite is due to chromium. The more chromium there is, the greener the color of jadeite is. Chromium makes jade appear in different colors of green, including gem green, glass green, seedling green, apple green, onion heart green, spinach green, melon rind green, lake green, wood green, orchid green, toad green, oily green and so on. The brightness of green is another important criterion for evaluating the value of jadeite. There are different types of green. Green with good quality is less common. Things with both good quality and water are extremely rare.

Nowadays, some jade jewelry that has no green or less green will appear to “grow” green after being worn frequently. Is this related to chromium? The answer is yes. Only jade can “grow” green, and this phenomenon can only occur if you keep it on your body and “nurture” it. This is another important factor that makes jade so charming.

People raise jade

The human body has a certain temperature, and when it is hot, it sweats. The acidic and alkaline components in the sweat will penetrate into the interior of the jade through the micro cracks in the jade jewelry. These ingredients may react chemically with chromium, which is why people feel that the green color will "grow".

Jade nourishes people

Isn’t chromium poisonous? Is the chromium contained in jade bracelets harmful to the human body? The answer is no.

Toxic are chromium compounds, such as hexavalent chromium, trivalent chromium, etc. The chromium in minerals such as jade is very beneficial to the body, which is also the scientific basis for the positive effects of emerald on the body. Chromium can regulate the human digestive system, help detoxification, and promote metabolism, thereby achieving the effects of enhancing vitality, beautifying the skin and losing weight.

From the perspective of pharmacology, long-term wearing of precious stones can maintain the balance of various elements in the human body, and different precious stones have different effects. Therefore, when wearing jade, try to keep it in contact with the skin. The green of emerald, nurtured by its icy skin and jade bones, can bring you blessings for a lifetime.
