Product Description
-------------------
.999 Pure Silver Plating BRUSHED to get that stainless
steel look! The look of stainless steel with the benefit of
copper and magnets! Look for the 1800 gauss samarium cobalt
magnet in each tip of the wristband! Sabona chooses Samarium
Cobalt magnets for long term durability and rust resistant
qualities. Sabona Copper Wristbands are made with the purest
copper available-99.99% All styles are designed for comfort and
manufactured to maintain shape and quality appearance. To get the
best fit, subtract 1/2" to 3/4" from your wrist size to determine
the size Sabona Copper Wristband you need. Sizes are Small
(5.5"), Medium (6.0"), Large (6.5") or Extra Large (7.0").
Wristbands are to be snug, but not tight. If you are in between
sizes, it works better for the band to be smaller rather than
larger. Copper, when in contact with the skin, form chelates with
human sweat (sometimes seen as a green deposit under the
bracelet) and is thus absorbed through the skin. It can be
removed with soap and water or lemon juice. To clean your Sabona
bracelet, use a good jewelry cleaning cloth to keep the outside
polished and the inside clean. Your Sabona magnetic bracelet
comes packaged in a presentable black jewel box.

The Copper Theory
Various forms of copper have been used for medicinal purposes
throughout the history of mankind. The ancient Egyptian, Greek,
Roman, Persian, Hindu and Aztec writings record various
consistent medicinal uses of copper.1 Today, as more information
becomes available, alternative care and home remedies are
gaining popularity. publications include copper bracelets
as a home remedy to possibly ease the pain from in some
people who seem to get an insufficient a of copper from
their food. Helmar Dollwet, Ph.D., of the University of Akron,
has studied this copper connection and thinks the dissolved
copper from a copper bracelet entering the body through the skin
may be the only way for them to get the copper they need.2
Another study found patients wearing copper bracelets absorbed an
average of 13 milligrams of copper during a month. "This could
bring many people into the recommended daily intake for copper
(1.5 to 3 milligrams). Copper absorbed through the skin gets into
circulation very efficiently more so than most dietary copper."
Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is one of the bodys own
copper-dependent enzymes that reduces pain and inflammation. The
body may use copper to make more of its own SOD.3

The Magnetic Theory
Magnets have been used in different cultures over the years by
those who believe magnets worn on the body promote good .
The theory is that magnet therapy may be beneficial by affecting
the circulatory system, the blood flow in the body. Increased
circulation is beneficial because the body gets more of the
ents it needs from the blood.
