Healing copper features were known long ago. This metal actively participates in the supply of blood to the tissues and in the metabolic reactions. Healthy people should get about 2mg of copper per day. It is assumed that 1 liter water contains about 1mg of copper so if you drink 2 liters of water everyday you should get the minimum amount of copper to stay healthy.

Copper is found in such products like meat, fish, bread, peas, various fruits and vegetables. Huge amount of copper is found in the champignons, potatoes, kidneys, liver, egg yolk, whole grains and in some sea products. All these products should be included in your diet. On the contrary diary products can lead to copper deficiency in the body. In ancient times copper was used to heal various ailments.

Nowadays it is very popular to wear copper bracelets. Copper level should be no less than 99%. It is believed that wearing copper bracelet on the right hand helps to relieve headache, insomnia, diabetes, impotence.

Copper tools can reduce the risk of germs and infections. Try to replace iron door handles, water taps and switches to copper alternatives.

Interesting experiment where held in one clinic. All water taps and closet covers were replaced by copper parts. Doors were also covered with copper sheets. 2 times per day scientists were taking samples from these areas and comparing them with usual taps and covers. Germ levels on the copper parts were 95% less than on usual parts.

They quickly pump more sugar and energy into the body. The problem is that those useful hormones can cause anxiety, irritation and sudden change of mood.
