Copper & Its Benefits
Ayurved has long-promoted using Copper for storing water and credits it with having a number of healing properties.Copper is a vital mineral for humans. When water is stored in a copper vessel, a process of ionisation occurs in which minerals infuse the water. These small deposits can then be absorbed after drinking.WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?
- Metabolism & Digestion: Copper is essential to the metabolic processes. It also has properties that stimulate peristalsis- which is a key process involved in digestion & flushing the digestive tract.
- Immunity: Copper is involved in a number of immune enzymes and is a great immunity booster. Studies also show copper to be anti-bacterial, helping to ward off disease. Much of the reason copper vessels are used so widely in India (where water-borne diseases are prevalent) is due to it being oligodynamic.
- Skin: Copper water is rich in anti-oxidants which helps to fight off free radicals, protecting your skin against breakouts. It is key in the development of new cells, therefore working in replenishing the skin-promoting a fresh, glowing complexion.
