Copper SoleTM Socks - Zone of Protection

• Prevent 99.9% of bacteria and fungi from growing on the sock to control odor
  Copper ions infused into the Cupron TM yarn prevent bacteria and fungi from growing in the sock, creating a clean, fresh environment that controls odor. No other sock uses Cupron TM yarn with the power of copper.
• Rejuvenate skin and improve its appearance
  Over time, Copper Sole TM socks rejuvenate your skin and improve its appearance and texture.
  
• Wick away moisture
  Copper Sole TM socks are designed to draw moisture away from the foot and allow it to evaporate through the sock, leaving the foot drier.
  
• Protect for the life of the sock
  Because the copper ions are infused into the yarn before it is extruded, not coated like other fibers, the protection doesn't wash out, even after hundreds of washings. The protection lasts as long as the sock does.
  
• Designed to help protect people with diabetes
  A smooth, comfortable toe seam prevents rubbing against toes and the special non-binding top is comfortable and won't stop circulation.
  
• Carry the American Podiatric Medical Association's seal of acceptance

Copper Sole TM Socks Research Before wearing Copper Sole TM Socks After 12 days wearing Copper Sole TM Socks Research has shown that Copper Sole TM Socks can produce substantial improvement in patients with problem feet. In a 2004-2005 study, podiatrist Dr. Richard C. Zatcoff, DPM, tracked the foot health of 51 patients, including 21 with diabetes. His study showed that patients wearing Copper Sole TM Socks had significant improvement in the appearance and texture of their skin, particularly around their toes and soles of their feet. "Copper Sole Socks take footwear to a higher standard and I recommend them to my patients for everyday use. The copper fibers remain active for the life of the sock, and copper ions are the only technology presently available that actually improves the appearance of the skin." - Dr. Richard Zatcoff, DPM of Upstate Podiatry in Simpsonville, S.C.

 

Copper Sole TM Socks & Diabetes As a person living with diabetes, you know the importance of good foot care. Having diabetes puts you at significant risk of developing a wide range of foot problems from peripheral neuropathy to ulceration. When left untreated, these problems can lead to serious infection or even loss of a limb. More than 80,000 amputations are performed each year in the U.S. and most are diabetes-related. But according to the American Diabetes Association, comprehensive foot care programs can reduce amputation rates by 45 percent - 85 percent.* In addition to regular visits to the podiatrist, prompt treatment, proper footwear and exercise are the keys to keeping feet healthy. Even something as simple as a pair of socks may be beneficial. *American Diabetes Association, www.diabetes.org
