Pure Copper Cookware

HEALTH BENEFITS:

Copper helps us maintain a healthy immune system, healthy blood vessels and bones. Since our bodies cannot produce the nutrient itself, it’s important that we receive it through external sources, such as the foods we eat or even household kitchenware such as cups or straws. Even in trace amounts, copper provides us with tremendous health benefits such as the following:

Anti-aging – Copper is an essential element in producing melanin. Melanin is what determines the pigmentation of our skin, hair and eyes. Because of its key role, without copper, our skin wouldn’t look as healthy. Low copper intake has also been associated with premature greying of the hair. Copper also plays a huge role in maintaining collagen and elastin. It has been hypothesized by scientists that copper may have antioxidant properties and a healthy intake may prevent skin ageing.

Immunity-booster – It’s thanks to white blood cells that we are able to fight off infection when we are ill. When we aren’t intaking enough copper, it reduces the white blood cells in our bodies making us more vulnerable to infection. Including trace amounts of copper in our diets helps us maintain enough blood cells to keep our bodies healthy and happy.

Skin healing- Copper combines anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and antiviral properties. These help our bodies heal wounds faster and support healthy cell renewal. These new cells replace the damaged cells and help fight off infection.

Brain health- Good amounts of copper in the body have been associated with the ability to process complex information and advanced thought.

Environmental impact- Unlike plastic, copper straws and houseware are sustainable, reusable and more presentable. They also don’t contain harmful BPA or carcinogens.

Joint health- Though it has yet to be scientifically proven, many have claimed that copper consumption helps relieve joint pain and arthritis.

Copper is an essential trace mineral that is vital to human health. It has antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps neutralize toxins. Our bodies cannot synthesize copper, so you need to get it from dietary sources.

According to Ayurveda, drinking copper-enriched water in the morning on an empty stomach helps all three Doshas (Kapha, Vata and Pitta). This also ensures proper functioning of different organs and several metabolic processes.

Copper is known to be oligodynamic in nature (the sterilising effect of metals on bacteria), and can destroy bacteria very effectively. It is especially effective against E.coli and S.aureus, two bacteria that are commonly found in our environment and are known to cause severe illnesses in the human body.

Copper promotes the breakdown and elimination of fat cells.

Copper helps regulate blood pressure and heart rate as well as lowers bad cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Copper is the main component in the production of melanin that defines the colour of your eyes, hair and skin. Melanin also helps keep the skin safe from sun damage, speeds up wound healing and covers up scars.

Copper aids the body’s absorption of iron, which plays a key role in fighting anaemia.

Copper also helps in the production of new and healthy skin cells that replace old dying ones.

Copper has very strong antioxidant properties which help fight off free radicals and negate their ill effects – one of the main reasons for the development of cancer.

Copper is known to have brain stimulant and anti-convulsive properties.

Copper regulates the functioning of thyroid gland.

Copper also has bone and immune system strengthening properties, helping to mitigate arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
