Eternal beauty, youth and endless life have been the target of alchemists from the earliest times. Traveling back in time, let’s dig up the evidence to see what people from different eras believed about the powers of this noble metal, gold.
Even the Holly Bible mentioned that Moses could cure diseases using gold, more precisely; he could calm down people by the help of a mixture of liquid gold and water.
Beginning with China, the author of the famous book “Great Secrets of Alchemy” explained how it was possible to life forever by constantly taking a potion of liquid gold mixed with mercury and arsenic. Many emperors followed this secret recipe but ended up by dying from poisoning.
Other witnesses could swear that the same recipe based on liquid gold was used for the same purpose in India but not so many people died as according to their religion, there were also some other ways to reach endless life. In Europe, many people have heard or write about the story of The Compte of saint Germain. Stories written by different writers mention him at a difference of several hundreds of years, which is practically impossible. But liquid gold seemed to be invincible.
In the Middle East, especially in Persia people tried to fond the famous elixir but all they could do was to advance the research in medicine.
On the other hand, liquid gold taken in too large quantities seemed to have killed people along centuries. The most famous case which could have been checked with modern equipment is the one of the Diane de Poitier. She wanted so much to maintain her beauty that she drank liquid gold daily and this excess killed her, making her suffer from anemia and endangered her bone system which, after her death, proved to contain an alarming quantity of gold.
All together, if used carefully, liquid gold could be if not the elixir of long life, at least one helpful treatment. The same elixir for a long and happy life could be in the financial field as gold bullion would ensure enough money to live more than well.
