Copper has antibacterial properties so much so that hospitals are taking efforts to reduce infections by switching their patient rooms with copper alloy surfaces, replacing tables, doorknobs and bed rails. Surprisingly, this alteration has actually reduced the number of healthcare-acquired infections.
When water is stored in a copper utensil overnight or for over eight hours, tiny particles of copper get leached into the water and dissolves into it. This process is known as the oligodynamic effect which possesses the ability to destroy a wide range of harmful microbes present in the water.
But in order to get the most from your copper vessels you need to:
1. It is very important that you purchase utensils which are made of pure copper. Never buy the ones which have other metals mixed in them. Something like our set of one copper leak-proof water bottle and one copper tumbler is the perfect choice for those looking forward to starting this healthy habit.
2. Once you receive the product, make sure to rinse the product thoroughly with water. Fill the copper vessel with fresh water and allow it to rest for 6 hours or more and then drink it.
3. The best time to drink copper treated water is in the morning immediately after you wake up before eating or drinking anything else.
