WHY DRINK FROM A COPPER WATER BOTTLE?
Drinking water stored in a copper water bottle has amazing health benefits and is widely recommended by health experts. Water stored in a copper vessel (which is known as “tamra jal” in Ayurvedic medicine) balances the three doshas in your body (vata, kapha and pitta) by gently infusing the water with the positive health properties of copper. Water stored in a copper vessel will also become natural alkaline water, which helps balance your body’s pH levels. Accordingly, our bottles are also natural alkaline water bottles.
Studies have shown that copper is anti-bacterial, acts as an effective anti-oxidant, improves immunity, supports good health, prevents aging, eliminates toxins and free radicals, and stimulates the brain. Our water bottles are perfect for everyone and ideal for those with an active lifestyle. Because copper is naturally anti-bacterial, our bottles are naturally self-sterilizing and therefore do not require as much cleaning as other water bottles.
In addition to the health benefits, our copper water bottles are also beautiful pieces of functional art. We believe that copper is the best material from which to make water bottles and have worked hard to produce an aesthetically pleasing product that suits an active lifestyle, supports the maintenance of good health, and helps the environment by avoiding the use of disposable plastic bottles.
Traditionally Handmade with Pride
Our water bottles are handcrafted with pride by skilled artisans using traditional techniques. Each of our bottles is shaped from a single sheet of 100% pure copper with no joints or seams, and capped with a beautiful leak-proof cap made of pure copper and a food-safe seal. As a result, our bottles are of exceptional quality. We are proud to say that this may be the last water bottle you own!
Top ten reasons why a copper water bottle can change your life:
1. Improves the Digestive System
Drinking from a copper water bottle is very beneficial to the digestive
system. It flushes out the stomach and digestive tract and helps detox
the liver and kidneys. It also increases the absorption of nutrients
from food and helps encourage peristalsis, which is the rhythmic
contraction and relaxation of the stomach that helps digest food and
move it through the digestive system. Drinking from our copper vessels
also helps kill harmful bacteria and prevent an upset stomach.
2. Builds a Strong Immune System
Copper is well-known for its incredible anti-bacterial, anti-viral and
anti-inflammatory properties. Copper 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.
In fact, recent studies have
shown that storing water in a copper vessel will dramatically decrease
the risk of bacterial contamination. Copper water vessels have been used
for centuries in countries around the world (like India) that lack a
good sanitation system in order to help prevent water-borne diseases.
3. Supports Weight Loss
In addition to improving the functioning of your digestive system and
building a strong immune system, drinking from a copper water bottle
will help your body break down fat and eliminate it as efficiently as
possible. Combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, drinking
from a copper vessel can be a safe and all-natural way to maintain a
healthy weight.
4. Prevents Aging
Drinking from a copper water bottle can also dramatically decrease the
appearance of fine lines and slow the appearance of aging. Water stored
in a copper vessel is loaded with anti-oxidants, aids the production of
new skin cells, and fights off free radicals which contribute to the
appearance of aging.
5. Prevents Cancer
Because water stored in a copper vessel is loaded with anti-oxidants, it
may also be effective at helping prevent and fight off cancer. In fact,
studies conducted by the American Cancer Society have shown that copper
has significant anti-cancer effects on the body and may prevent the
onset of cancer.
6. Maintains Cardiovascular Health
Studies have also shown that copper helps minimize the risk of
developing heart disease, helps regulate blood pressure, and lowers
cholesterol levels. Copper also helps prevent the build-up of plaque in
the arteries and dilates blood vessels to allow better flow of blood to
the heart.
7. Supports the Thyroid Gland
Copper cannot be produced within the body and needs to be sourced from
external sources. Studies have shown that people that experience
problems with their thyroid generally suffer from low levels of copper.
While copper deficiency is most common with people that suffer from
hyperthyroidism (over-active thyroid gland), copper deficiency is also
common with people that experience hypothyroidism (under-active thyroid
gland). Copper is one of the most important minerals and is essential in
order for your thyroid gland and body to function properly. Drinking
from a copper water bottle helps combat copper deficiency and regulate
the proper functioning of your thyroid gland. In addition, copper aids
the body’s absorption of iron, which is essential to maintain healthy
iron levels and prevent anemia.
8. Stimulates the Brain
Copper is a known brain stimulant and helps your mind work faster and
more efficiently. The brain works by transmitting impulses from one
neuron to another through an area known as the synapses. These neurons
are covered by the myelin sheath that acts like a sort of conductive
agent. Copper aids in the synthesis of materials that are essential for
the formation of these myelin sheaths.
9. Fights Arthritis and Inflamed Joints
Copper’s anti-inflammatory properties help relieve aches and pains
caused by arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and inflamed joints. In
addition, copper strengthens the bones and immune system, which makes it
an excellent remedy for arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
10. Keeps Skin Healthy and Acne Free
Copper is the key component in the production of new cells that help
replenish the top layers of your skin and keep it fresh and glowing. The
production of new cells promotes smooth, blemish-free and clear skin.
Experts say that drinking from a copper water bottle on a regular basis,
especially early in the morning, can make a very significant difference
to the health of your skin.
