Nature’s Germ Killer Copper can stop germs before you get sick

By Doug Cornell

Scientists have discovered a natural way to kill germs fast.

Now thousands of people are using it against viruses and bacteria that cause illness.

Colds, flu, and many other illnesses start when viruses get in your nose and multiply. If you don’t stop them early, they spread and cause misery.

Hundreds of studies confirm copper kills germs like viruses, bacteria, and fungus almost instantly, just by touch.

That’s why ancient Greeks and Egyptians used copper to purify water and heal wounds. They didn’t know about germs. Now we do.

The National Institutes of Health and the American Society for Microbiology vouch for the power of copper to kill germs.

Scientists say copper’s high conductance disrupts the electrical balance in a germ cell and destroys it in seconds.

The EPA recommends hospitals use copper for touch surfaces such as faucets and doorknobs. This cuts the spread of MRSA and other illnesses by over half, and saves lives.

The strong scientific evidence gave inventor Doug Cornell an idea. He made a smooth copper probe with a tip to fit in the bottom of the nostril where viruses collect.

When he felt a tickle in his nose like a cold about to start, he rubbed the copper gently in his nose for 60 seconds.

“It worked!” he exclaimed. “The cold never happened.” That was 2012.

Now he’s gone 11 years without a cold. “I used to get 2-3 bad colds every year. Now I use my CopperZap right away at any sign I am about to get sick.”

After the initial success, he asked relatives and friends to try it.

Users say:

“It works! I love it!”

“I can’t believe how good my nose feels.”

“Is it supposed to work that fast?”

“One of the best presents ever.”

“Sixteen flights, not a sniffle!”

“Cold sores gone!”

“It saved me last holidays. The kids all got sick, but not me.”

“I am shocked! My sinus cleared, no more headache, no more congestion.”

“Best sleep I’ve had in years!”

They all said it worked, so he patented CopperZap® and put it on the market.

Soon hundreds of people had tried it. 99% said copper worked if they used it right away at the first sign of bad germs, like a tickle in the nose or a scratchy throat.

Soon people found other things they could use it against:

Colds and Flu

Covid

Sinus trouble from germs

Cold sores or fever blisters

Canker sores that get infected

Mold allergies

Congestion or stuffiness

Drippy nose

Hay fever worsened by bacteria

Strep throat

Pink Eye and Styes

Skin infections

Infected sores

Cuts or wounds getting infected

Thrush and Tongue Infections

Warts

Ringworm

The handle is curved and textured to increase contact with fingers and hands in case you touch things sick people may have touched.

Scientists placed millions of viruses on copper. “The viruses started to die literally as soon as they touched it,” said Dr. Bill Keevil.

The EPA says copper works just as well when tarnished. Easy to clean or polish.

Healthy Summer Greetings

I felt it would be nice to hear from our hard-working editor, Linda Sechrist this month. Linda has been working her magic behind the scenes for the past 20 years, giving readers much of our editorial content each month. Not only is she busy with Natural Awakenings but she’s also President of the SWFL RESET Center in Ft. Myers and supports many environmental organizations and important causes such as signing The Florida Right to Clean Movement (FloridaRightToCleanWater. org). I feel extremely blessed by our collaboration and friendship.

Twenty Short Years

Twenty years went by in a flash. Doing what I loved and being aligned with my purpose, time didn’t seem to exist each month as I was interviewing people, listening to their stories, and writing articles for 244 issues. I love to listen to people’s stories. It began in sixth grade when my teacher, Mrs. Snyder, read the Adventures of Tom Sawyer to our class. The characters, Becky Tatcher, Huckleberry Finn, and Injun Joe sprang to life and sparked my imagination when I heard Mark Twain’s words. I think I’ve been enthralled with listening ever since.

This month, I interviewed one of my favorite authors, Phil Cousineau, who wrote The Art of Pilgrimage. You won’t see the results of that interview until September, when you read my feature story on travel. Because of The Art of Pilgrimage and Crossing to Avalon by Jean Shinoda Bolen, in 2000, my daughter and I had our pilgrimage to sacred sites in England.

Interviewing people I admire and whose books I’ve read is my greatest joy. Reading the great luminaries of our times and having phone conversations with them, that I turned into articles, is what helped to raise my consciousness. This is why I so enjoyed interviewing Fort Myers resident, Kandy Love, for Local Awakenings. Listening to stories of how people awaken, how it changes their lives and affects their decisions usually gives me goosebumps as I so often hear parts of my story in theirs.

Naples resident, Josephine DeVincenzi, is our Reader Spotlight. I met the cofounder of the Carbon CREW (Carbon Reduction for Earth Wellbeing) Project, at the Climate Summit. She, like me, is concerned about what’s happening to Earth and hopeful that those who join her book club and read 2040: A Handbook for the Regeneration based on the documentary 2040, by Damon Gameau, will become equally as concerned and hopeful.

After so many years and so many interviews, I’ve become friends with people I’ve interviewed. Terri Evans, owner of Tae Healthy Aging, and Jennifer Alvarez Linguidi, owner of Purely You Spa, are among them. Their stories this month fascinated me so much that I might just try Terri’s acupuncture facelift and Jennifer’s sauna with chromotherapy. I also might get curious enough to check out Purely You’s Cold Plunge at the BioHack Launch this month.

We hope you enjoy this month’s issue of Natural Awakenings
