NordenBladet – Ayurveda stems from the Indian Veda tradition and is a science of long and healthy life and it is considered to be the world’s oldest healing system. According to Ayurveda, diseases emerge when the life energy is out of balance. The purpose of Ayurveda is to prevent diseases, i.e. to halt the development of disorders at least in stage four, i.e before they settle.
According to Ayurveda teaching, if you keep water in a copper jug then the water will be charged with positive energy and healing power. This water is called „tamara jal” and it is recommended to drink the water after 8 hours of keeping it in the jug. Drinking the water which has been charged with copper is recommended in the morning right after waking up.
It is difficult to find a process in the human organism that is not influenced by copper directly or indirectly. Also modern doctors and nutritionists share this viewpoint – copper helps guarantee a life of health and quality.

Copper is vital for all beings
As a naturally available element it can be found almost anywhere around us. However, the human organism cannot produce copper and cannot maintain it. Therefore it is necessary to obtain copper every day from food, drinking water, and if necessary, also from food supplements.
Important sources of copper
There is copper in several foodstuffs, including liver, meat, seafood, beans, whole grain products, soy flour, wheat brans, almonds, avocados, barley, garlic, nuts, oats, beet and lentils. Richest in copper naturally are the oysters. An adult needs 900 µg of copper daily. Copper deficiency results in paleness, ulcers, swelling, growth retardation, loss of hair, loss of appetite, diarrhoea, and inclination for subcutaneous hematomas, also dermatitis or the inflammation of the skin.
