Micronutrients


The human body requires various metals in trace forms which are called micronutrients. The body cannot produce the micronutrients but their intake is a must for the body to form its functions. The main source of these metals are plants and also the utensils in which we eat our food. Whatever metal utensils we may use, traces of it go into the body with each meal. Bronze as we know if made of Copper and Tin. Both of these elements are vital for the body.

Copper


Copper is essential for the brain and the nervous system. It plays a role in collagen production which is one of the essential structural components of the body. It also helps in the neuron signalling in the brain by acting as a damper between neurons. Copper is germicidal i.e it kills germs. This helps prevent the production and accumulation of germs on bronze utensils. Copper also helps reduce the pH of the body and has an alkalizing effect.

Tin


The other component of bronze is tin which is very essential for the production of haemoglobin in the blood. Tin is also a trace element which catalyzes several body functions. Tin helps maintain the adrenals and hence adds energy and removes fatigue. It is also good for the mood and counters depression.

Kansa or Bronze


As both copper and tin play vital role for the brain functions, the ancient Ayurveda says “कांस्यम् बुद्धिवर्धकम् “meaning – eating in Bronze utensils enhances Intellect. The combined effect of both the metals helps maintain the pH of the body by alkalinizing the acids thus providing a boost to the vitality and energy of the body. Kansa improve the immunity power while detoxifying the internal organs. The balance of the innate energy of the body is restored and a healing effect is experienced by the entire body.
