While copper water bottles have been touted for their potential health benefits, such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, excessive copper consumption can indeed cause health issues, including infertility, liver damage, and other problems; the Indian government's guidelines recommend using copper vessels that are coated with a layer of tin or silver to prevent copper toxicity, and drinking water stored in copper vessels for 8-12 hours is considered safe,

I'm feeling pretty miserable with a cold and fever for the past couple of days. The cold symptoms are really intense, and although I only felt the fever internally yesterday, things seem to be getting worse. What should I do about this? Is there anything specific I should be worried about, or any remedies youd recommend to help me feel better?
-Sorry to hear you're feeling unwell! It sounds like the cold is hitting you harder than the fever. Make sure to rest, stay hydrated, and consider steam inhalation or a saline nasal spray for relief. If it worsens, dont hesitate to see a doctor.
