Copper can be absorbed through the skin and excessive copper can result in copper poisoning.

However copper bracelets and wearing copper does not really help with any ailments or pain or arthritis.

Copper bracelets and copper gloves or other copper Jewellery do not really have any health benefits and actually do not do anything to help improve health, pain, arthritis etc.

Wearing a copper bracelet or other copper around your wrist is supposed to help with inflammation, pains and aches and it's supposed to do this by transmitting tiny particles of copper through your skin.

It's basically magnetic therapy that's supposed to work through the magnetic field of the body.

In reality though the copper bracelets have no actual effect on the human body although some people believe they do but it's nothing more than a placebo effect.

Wearing a copper bracelet or wearing copper gloves does not help with pain.

Some people say that the pain goes away with wearing the copper bracelet or copper gloves but it's simply a placebo effect and nothing more.

Copper gloves do not really help with arthritis or pain and gloves with copper filaments do nothing to really give relief from arthritis or pain in any other way other than the placebo effect.

I've worn copper gloves and they never helped my arthritis or pain at all.
