The Antimicrobial & Beauty Boosting Mineral: Copper

istockphoto-904149370-612×612

Copper has been making waves in the world of biohacking and wellness, and for good reason. This ancient mineral has been used for thousands of years to combat pathogens, promote wound healing, and improve skin health. And now, modern technology is allowing us to harness its full potential.

From Copper-infused clothing to face masks and sleep wellness products, the benefits of this mineral are being rediscovered and repurposed. Copper’s germ-killing power starts killing pathogens on contact and eradicates them within 1-4 hours. Its anti-inflammatory properties make it a powerful tool for combating arthritis and other pain conditions, and its role in collagen and elastin production is essential for healthy skin.

As we age, collagen and elastin production slows down, leading to wrinkles and a loss of skin elasticity. However, copper has been shown to boost collagen and elastin production and promote blood vessel growth and skin nourishment. Copper-infused fabrics can be absorbed through the skin, resulting in improved skin tone, texture, and hydration.

One 8-week study even showed that sleeping on a copper-infused pillowcase significantly decreased crow’s feet wrinkles. And beyond its anti-aging benefits, copper also acts as a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing harmful free radicals and promoting the production of hyaluronic acid, which is crucial for hydrated, youthful-looking skin.

I’ve been using EnVy’s Copper pillows, they use new and advanced technology. Unlike the earlier copper technology, it’s not limited in the coverage it provides. EnVy treats natural fabrics, and more importantly, every strand and sub-strand is treated providing the user with a complete 100% copper coverage with a quicker and more complete germ killing capability.

In short, copper is a biohacker’s dream come true. So whether you’re looking to boost your skin health, fight off germs, or reduce inflammation, incorporating copper into your wellness routine might just be the magic solution you’ve been searching for.
