50Connect UK are reporting: Stamp Out Pain With Copper
Quote:
Orthopaedic footwear specialist Anthony Andrews, has combined 40 years professional experience with the healing properties of copper to develop a new product that could bring drug-free pain relief to people affected by arthritis or joint pain. He has developed a copper insole worn inside the shoe called the Original Copper Heeler which has been trialled with success on the patients of chiropodist Charles Goldman (M.Inst. Ch.P D.Ch.M.), who said they noticed relief after two to three weeks of wearing them.

Copper is not manufactured in the body and must be procured from other sources such as food or by direct contact with the body. When copper comes into contact with the skin, it forms chemical compounds called chelates, which play an important role in oxygen transportation.
Anthony Andrews realised the potential healing benefits of copper and that the 250,000 sweat glands on the soles of the feet would provide an ideal environment for optimum copper absorption. The Original Copper Heeler is moulded to the shape of the foot for ultimate comfort and comes in five different fits to accommodate most sized feet.
Although he makes no claim to cure infertility, there is a link on his website to Sexual Aphrodisiacs...

If you fancy pepping up your love life this summerm take a tip from historical lovers such as Cleopatra, who it is said was an expert when it came to mixing love potions, or Casanova, who was not above resorting to a little herbal encouragement.
Here are six of the best herbal aphrodisiacs.
Muira Puama
A South American favourite, the name translates as “Potency Wood”. In studies this has demonstrated an ability to enhance sexual arousal and to improve erectile function. It has a long history of traditional use amongst native Amazonian tribes who used it for restoring or revitalising desire.
Ginkgo Biloba
This ancient herb is renown for maintaaining good circulation to the extremities of the body and recent research has shown that this may include improving blood flow to the sexual organs. This improved circulation is believed to help enhanced blood flow to the sexual organs and may be supportive to women experiencing a loss of desire or an inability to become properly aroused.
Horny Goat Weed
Horny Goat Weed is a time tested aphrodisiac and is believed to naturally improve your libido, and help to support sexual function. If the flame of desire is in danger of flickering out or if you feel like you need to spice up your love life, then Horny Goat Weed may be just what you need to re-ignite your passion and save your love life.
Clinical trials have shown that Horny Goat Weed may increase testosterone production, stimulate the sensory nerves and increase sexual desire in men and women. In a recent study, 13 out of 20 men who took part in a 45-day trial responded positively to Horny Goat Weeed reporting an overall improvement in sexual satisfaction and an increase in sexual desire.(1)
Avena Sativa
Historically Avena Sativa, otherwise known as the common oat, has been used to treat a whole spectrum of ailments from nervous exhaustion to insomnia and rheumatic conditions to water retention. They have a long reputation as the most energising of grains but it is only recently that oats have gained recognition for their aphrodisiac qualities.
Damiana Leaves
Renown as a sexuality tonic for both men and women, it is said to help stimulate oxygen flow to the sexual organs to enhance pleasure.
Ginseng
An old favourite for maintaining energy and stamina levels, Ginseng may help strengthen the adrenal and reproductive glands as well as increasing fertility levels.
If Randy Andy and Professor Brian were to combine forces, just think of the population growth we could have!
