Farmers in Liaoning province in Northeastern China, have found enjoyment in having a jade pillow — just as the ancient emperors did (The Xinhua News Agency). Believe it or not, this county actually exports these jade pillows to other countries. As mentioned earlier, traditional Chinese medicine says that jade is good for one’s health. The price per pillow for this health? It costs about $30 US dollars. Who is the target audience for this jade pillow? Most of the people using jade pillows are elder or middle-aged people, for these people in China believe that the fine quality of jade will improve blood circulation to the brain and keep the central nervous system healthy (The Xinhua News Agency). Any confirmed results? A 67-year-old man in this county in China confirmed that after using the jade pillow for nearly one year, black hair started to grow on his head that had been bald for many years (The Xinhua News Agency)!
