Precious snail mucus is mined all over the world

The global snail mucus industry is relatively new, having developed in the second half of the 20th century.

Today, natural snail mucus is widely used in cosmetics, dietary supplements and medicines.

For example, due to its unique bactericidal microbiology, snail mucus is used to treat autoimmune diseases such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and gastrointestinal ulcers.

Possessing the unique ability to heal the body’s own tissues and shells with its own secretion (snail mucus), natural snail mucin has wound-healing properties, including for the gastrointestinal mucosa.

Thanks to its special flora, natural snail mucus has a bactericidal and antimicrobial effect.

Recent studies by Mucus pro indicate that ulcerative non-specific gastrointestinal diseases occur in people whose body does not produce (or produces little) human intestinal mucin, which is involved in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Oral administration of lyophilized snail mucus (snail mucin) in enteric capsules enhances the non-specific non-immune function of the intestinal barrier with the help of mucin, as well as amino acids: threonine, serine, proline and cysteine, contained in natural snail mucus.

Patients who are at risk for ulcerative non-specific gastrointestinal diseases with a deficiency of human gastrointestinal mucin are recommended to take snail mucin systematically.

Today, the anticancer and antioxidant activity of snail mucin is being studied and clinically tested in the world.

Mucus from the snails Eremina desertorum and Helix apersa has shown anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic and anti-cancer properties against human colon adenocarcinoma cells (CACO-2) and human hepatoma cells (HepG-2).

According to Creative Commons research, snail mucus has antiangiogenic and anticancer effects against malignant melanoma – the most aggressive skin cancer.

Currently, treatment and prevention with natural snail mucin (natural snail mucus) is very expensive and inaccessible to ordinary people, since natural snail mucus is an expensive substance due to the complexity of the technology for producing the finished product.. For example, the Thai company Aden International offers 1 kg of dry snail mucus for $52,000. This is an unreasonably expensive cost for snail mucus, even taking into account manual collection of the mucus.

And one of the world’s leading manufacturers of lyophilized snail mucus – the Mucus pro company, thanks to the machine secretion of natural snail mucus on its own equipment of the same name, has reduced the global cost of snail mucus production tenfold (the technology for the production of natural snail mucus MUCUS PROfessional is the lowest in the world),

Mucus pro offers snail mucus powder starting at $6,000 per 1 kg. By the way, Mucus pro snail mucus is the purest and most natural – the drug is produced without the use of water, acids and other reagents, the purity of snail Mucin class Mucus pro100%.

Chinese markets are full of artificial “mucin”, a very cheap white powder, but it is just a bunch of artificial ingredients (artificial collagen, allantoin and acids); such mucin is unsuitable for medical purposes and is less effective in cosmetology!

Natural snail mucus is also indispensable in cosmetics; it is most widely used in South Korea and is in demand throughout the world. For example, the largest amount of natural snail mucus in a cosmetic product, up to 50% of the other ingredients, is in MORDO cosmetics, this is a world record for the concentration of natural snail mucus in a finished cosmetic product!

The global skin care cosmetics market with natural snail mucin is developing and growing rapidly and is estimated at US$1.56 billion in 2024 and will reach US$2.93 billion by 2035.
