Yogis and traditional households in India
have for thousands of years (and are till today) been utilizing a simple,
practical and effective method of drinking water in its most holistic
way- drinking water from a copper cup or a large copper vessel where
water is stored.
Ayurveda
recommends storing water in copper vessels. Benefits of copper according
to ayurveda:
- Drinking water from copper cups prevents ageing, vaya-sthapak.
- Copper can destroy undesirable virus and bacteria. When copper
dissolves in water, water becomes ionic (electrolyte) as can be
ascertained by its pH measurement. That is the reason the
micro-organisms get killed in such water.

Yogis have revered copper as an ideal
container to positively charge water before drinking it. For thousands
of years, the yogis would
carry water in their copper pot called 'kamandalam'. In traditional
households in India, copper drinking cups such as the ones offered here
is still used. We now offer these traditional copper drinking cups called in South India
"tumblers" to you!
First recognized in the 1870's as a
normal constituent of blood, copper is a trace mineral that
plays an important role in our metabolism,
largely because it allows many critical enzymes to function
properly.
Copper plays an important part in the following:
- Iron Utilization
- Elimination of Free Radicals
- Development of Bone & Connective Tissue
- Melanin Production
Oligodynamic effect:
Copper has
proven to kill bacteria due to what is called the 'oligodynamic'
effect.
The oligodynamic effect (Greek oligos = few, dynamis = force)
was discovered in 1893 by the Swiss KW Nägeli as a toxic effect
of metal-ions on living cells, algae, moulds, spores, fungi,
virus, prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, even in
relatively low concentrations. This antimicrobial effect is
shown by ions of: mercury, silver, copper, iron, lead, zinc,
bismuth, gold, aluminum and other metals.
Certain metals such as copper are known to be
far more poisonous to bacteria than others, e.g. stainless steel
or aluminum

crystalline structure is changed. When water is blessed, the water has
super healing properties. This fact has been brought to general
awareness by Dr Masaru Emoto recently.

energized.
