Brass
Our yellow metal is Jeweler's Brass, an alloy of 85% pure copper and 15% pure zinc, both essential minerals worn since prehistoric times by many non-related cultures around the world. Science has already proven that metals such as copper are absorbed through the skin, so besides their beauty, our bracelets can also be considered a time-release source of essential minerals.
Silver
The white metal is German Silver, an alloy used in making white gold; 65% Copper plus Zinc, Nickel & Silver.
Copper
Our red metal is 99.99% Pure Copper, lead free, the purest available. Copper is one of the friendliest elements as it combines with many others. Science has already proven that metals such as copper are absorbed through the skin, so besides their beauty, our bracelets can also be considered a time-release source of essential minerals.
BENEFITS OF WEARING COPPER
The use of copper for medicinal purposes is found throughout recorded history. “Treat inflammation with pulverized copper” was written in the Eber Papyrus (the world’s oldest medical text). And today, thousands of years later, doctors and pharmacies around the world still recommend copper bracelets as a safe first aid for joint pains.
“Copper, when in contact with the skin, forms chelates with human sweat (sometimes seen as green deposits) and is thus absorbed through the skin. Think of a bracelet as a ‘time-released’ source of copper.” -Dr. Ray Walker, University of Newcastle, Australia
“Copper chelates are more effective and less toxic than drugs being used to treat arthritis.” -John Sorenson, Ph.D.
“Copper is an essential element of an enzyme necessary for the production and regeneration of the cartilage lining the bone surfaces. Copper and zinc, are also essential to Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) which cleans up superoxide radicals that are destructive to human tissues.” -Dr. Helmar Dollwet
COPPER BRACELETS & GREEN WRISTS
Occurrences of green wrists due to wearing copper bracelets vary depending on the body chemistry of the wearer and, if desired, are easily washed off. Many expect an occasional green mark to show that the copper “is working”. Copper combines with sweat, and forms compounds called chelates, which are assimilated by the body. Green deposits occur when chelates are formed faster than they are absorbed. This phenomenon increases with stress and it can be interpreted as an early warning to slow down.
BENEFITS OF WEARING MAGNETIC JEWELRY
Each magnetic bracelet by Sergio Lub contains two powerful Rare Earth Magnets encapsulated in stainless steel for maximun rust free conductivity. Rare Earth Magnets are made of the mineral neodymium (Nd), which holds its magnetic properties for a lifetime. Each bracelet is handcrafted for adjustability and superior beauty.
In 1954, Dr. Linus Pauling, received a Nobel Prize for his discovery of the magnetic properties of hemoglobin. He found that iron, and many electrolytic salts in our blood, circulate bio-magnetically. Therefore, the proximity of a magnetic field may result in an acceleration of circulation and the transfer of energy to all areas of the body.
Traditional Chinese doctors have known for millennia that a magnetic field, when next to the body, could markedly increase the wearer’s vital life force, known as Chi. The observed benefits were found to increase with the magnet’s proximity to acupressure points. Two of these points are in the inner wrist, in the area covered by the ends of our bracelets.
For precautionary reasons, if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or other electrical implant, please consult a doctor before wearing magnets.
Why Wear Magnets?
Magnet therapy is a rapidly growing field. Scientific research has shown that magnetic fields influence biological systems, attract and repel charged particles in the blood stream increasing circulation, stimulate tissue regeneration, and reduce pain. Magnets can be safe alternatives for: alleviating pain and stiffness related to sports activities like tennis or golf; promoting healing via the body's own internal mechanisms; increasing circulation; reducing inflammation; and for many specific ailments related to all systems of the body, even mental health.
How Magnetic Therapy Works
As acupuncture is considered to be an Empirical Science, relying on observation and experience, so is Magnet Therapy. While numerous studies have resulted in astoundingly positive results for pain relief, none can yet explain exactly how magnetic energy relieves pain. The application of magnetic fields influences the bio-magnetic activity already occurring at cell level in the human body. It has been proven for instance that magnetic fields can increase circulation, increase the utilization of oxygen in our blood, and enhance tissue regeneration.
In 1954 Linus Pauling, received a Nobel Prize for his discovery of the magnetic properties of hemoglobin in the blood. He found that iron, in addition to its other functions, plays an important role in cell metabolism. Iron, and many electrolytic salts in our blood circulate bio-magnetically. In light of these discoveries, it has been found that the remote effect of magnetic flux on the body involves the iron in the bloodstream and it's ability to be magnetized. This magnetization results in an acceleration of circulation and the transfer of negative (bio-north) energy to all areas of the body.
