Does Marble have healing properties?

Here at The Marble Egg Emporium, we think these ancient eggs exude a calming, spiritual peace, and are ideal for any home or office space. However, let's look at some science.

Marble is made up of calcium carbonate and will react in contact with many acids, neutralizing them. In fact it is one of the most effective acid neutralization materials on the planet, and is often used in crushed form to neutralize acid in streams, lakes and soils.

It is also used in the chemical industry for human medicine. Pharmaceutical antacid medicines such as 'Tums' and Alka Seltzer contain calcium carbonate which is sometimes made from powdered marble, which is sometimes used as an inert filler in other pills too. (Geology.com).

They DO have healing properties.
