NEW COPPER WATER BOTTLE SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO BENEFIT HEALTH

Move over crystal-infused water bottles, a new, reusable copper water bottle has just been launched that is not only stylish but is also the first to offer scientifically proven evidence of its health benefits. Stick that in your bottle and drink it. Literally.

The new range of Paani bottles, handcrafted using the purest copper sheet in India.

Just launched in the UK, the Paani bottles are proven to be safer than plastic or steel drink surfaces with scientifically confirmed health benefits and Ayurvedic properties as well as being a stylish way to consume your recommended two litres of water per day. They truly are ‘wonder’ bottles.

Why use copper?

With roots back to the ancient Egyptians, ancient Chinese, and India, copper has, for over 5000 years, been known as a ‘beneficial agent for health thanks to the material having natural, biocidal properties effectively making it a natural disinfectant.

The practice of storing water in upright, copper water vessels, like Paani, overnight is one of the pillars of Ayurvedic Medicine which credits the practice as having beneficial effects on weight management, cardiovascular health, joint pains, and skin conditions.

But it is only now that it has been scientifically proven that storing the water for up to 24 hours in the copper bottle actually ‘cleanses’ the water and removes over 99.9% of harmful bacteria and viruses making it better for you.

What do the scientists say about Paani?

This is the first scientific study conducted on the benefits of copper water bottles in the UK.

Using filtered tap water, leading scientist, Professor Bill Keevil, Professor of Environmental Healthcare, at the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Southampton, led the 2022 study specifically looking at the health benefits of storing water in a Paani copper water bottle.

The leading Professor has gone on record to say that water stored overnight in a Paani water bottle “rapidly purified the water and we get more than 99.9% reduction in bacteria – such as faecal E. coli and K. pneumoniae. This work showed that Paani bottles have got this very beneficial property of purifying water, certainly within 24 hours” – literally making your recommended two litres of water of drinking water safer to drink thanks to the bottle’s ability of inactivating bacteria and viruses**.

Is the Paani bottle better than crystal water bottles?

Crystal or gem-stone infused water bottles were a craze in 2021, based on a trending idea that crystals could magically transfer some of their powers or energies into the water. This concept had no foundation in Ayurvedic Medicine, nor could it be backed up by independent scientific research, unlike the Paani copper water bottle. Any health ‘benefits’ were placebo in nature and could not be substantiated. In contrast, the Paani copper water bottle is backed up by science.

Is the Paani copper water bottle better than plastic?

Using the Paani copper bottle as your water bottle sidesteps the contamination issues of storing water in plastic water bottles. Drinking water that has been stored in a plastic water bottle can contain, according to scientists like Professor Bill Keevil, hundreds of chemical traces, including toxins from the plastic (PET) water bottle itself, that may be harmful to health. Plastic can also harbour bacteria if cracked or left unwashed. As well as this how good is plastic for the environment? It takes up to 1,000 years for 1 plastic water bottle to decompose!

What about stainless steel?

Whilst it might look nice and shiny, numerous studies reconfirm that stainless steel has no antimicrobial properties.

Substance and Style?

Not only does the Paani bottle boast potential benefits to your health, the Paani copper water bottle also packs a punch in the style stakes, with its sleek and stylish bottle design and interchangeable, branded colour sleeves to make it the perfect accessory on everyone’s lips this Spring. As well as this, the option to personalise your choice of grip sleeve by placing your name at the back.

Paani Copper Water Bottles come in two sizes: 700ml and 900ml, priced at £35 and £40.
