Copper fabrics are known to be antimicrobial and could be used in everyday products to destroy any bacteria and viruses as there have been recent tests to show it destroys, HIV Virus, Influenza Virus etc.
Can Copper be bad for your health?
Copper is essential to your health, without Copper you will die. We have a process in our bodies called homeostasis, that balances all the bodies essential needs. (out of 1000 patients both within and outside the NHS we have never, ever been informed of any negative reaction, this occurrence would be most rare indeed and for this reason we would advise that people with Wilsons disease should avoid supplementary Copper, but anyone and everyone else there is no harm).
We have stated that copper is antimicrobial, what does that mean?
Copper effectively kills a broad spectrum of viruses, bacteria and fungus, this is due to exposure from the copper ions that are emitted from the fabric. These penetrate the harmful bacteria/fungus that can cause foot odor, bacterial and fungal infections leaving compromised skin infection free.
