10 Benefits of Drinking Water from Copper Vessels

1. Antimicrobial Properties: Copper has been shown to kill harmful bacteria and viruses. Charging water in copper vessels can help purify the water by eliminating microorganisms like E. coli and S. aureus, reducing the risk of waterborne diseases.

2. Improved Digestion: Copper can stimulate peristalsis (the rhythmic contraction and relaxation of the stomach that helps digestion), kill harmful bacteria, and reduce inflammation within the stomach, making it beneficial for digestive health.

3. Weight Loss: Drinking copper-infused water may aid in weight loss by improving metabolism, breaking down fat cells and helping in the efficient elimination of waste.

4. Boosted Cardiovascular Health: Copper helps regulate blood pressure, heart rate, and cholesterol levels, contributing to overall heart health.

5. Enhanced Immune Function: Copper is essential for maintaining a healthy immune system. It supports the production of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen to the body’s tissues, and acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage.

6. Better Skin Health: Copper’s antioxidant properties can slow down aging and help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. It also promotes the production of melanin, which aids in skin regeneration and healing.

7. Anti-inflammatory Benefits: Copper can help reduce inflammation and is beneficial for conditions like arthritis. It promotes the healing of wounds and reduces pain and discomfort.

8. Enhanced Brain Function: Copper is essential for the synthesis of phospholipids, which are crucial for the formation of myelin sheaths. These sheaths surround nerve cells and enhance brain function, improving cognitive function.

9. Thyroid Health: Copper plays an important role in the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. It helps balance the thyroid hormones, which play an important role in regulating various bodily functions.

10. Increased Energy: Copper can help improve the energy level by helping the body absorb iron. Drinking from a copper vessel like our Kansa Cup also helps prevent and treat anemia and copper deficiency.

Recommended usage:

Charge your water overnight in a Kansa Cup for 6-8 hours before drinking. Drink your water at room temperature first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
