Copper. Is it good for you or is it bad? 🤔
There is a lot of conflicting research done out there so I’ve decided to draw my own conclusion. When used in moderation, copper can be beneficial to your health. This particular heavy metal is considered a ductile element, meaning it binds to nutrients (i.e iron) to be better absorbed by the body. Are you reading, low iron sufferers? 👀 Copper also aids in weight-loss, cognitive stimulation, anti-aging and it is said to be anti-cancer as well.
When drinking out of a copper vessel, you’re essentially drinking all of its wonderful properties that it has leached into the liquid.
But like I mentioned, moderation is key. Too much copper could potentially lead to digestive and liver problems. Copper iuds (non-hormonal), have been said to damage the reproductive system when left in too long.
I hate to sound like somewhat of a contradicting, pharmaceutical commercial but I enjoy informed consent lol. Just be mindful of these things when incorporating this magical metal into your life, friends.
