Why
copper should be a part of our intake?/Reason to consume copper
Certainly a healthy human body needs trace amount of copper
to function effectively. Copper aids with generating heat in the human body,
aiding conversation between different cells, breaking down certain foods to
prepare hemoglobin and boost metabolism. And copper deficiency leads to health
issues like anemia, parasitic infections too. In addition, Copper has many
properties which assist in the formation of hemoglobin as well as cell
regeneration but unfortunately the human body cannot create the trace amount of
copper. So copper has to be part of our intake either through food or water.

body but also to the environment too. It is an inexpensive metal available in
great quantity as well as easiest to recycle.

was kid there was a big jug in our house which was made of copper. We all
family members used to drink water from it. My mother used to wash and clean it
on daily basis. I was really very excited about that Jug. My father used to say
it is very healthy to drink water from it. That water jug was from my grandma’s
generation. My father used to tell many
benefits about the copper. He used to tell that drinking water from copper utensils
is known to boost digestion, flush out all toxins from the body, kills bad
bacteria also and so on.
