Pure Copper Milk Jug

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.
