2. Powerful sterilization: it can kill many germs harmful to the human body within minutes.

3. Strong permeability: It can quickly penetrate into the subcutaneous tissue through the pores to kill bacteria, and has a good bactericidal effect on infections caused by common bacteria, stubborn bacteria, drug-resistant bacteria and fungi;

4. Promote healing: Improve the microcirculation of tissues around the wound, effectively activate and promote the growth of tissue cells, accelerate wound healing, and reduce scar formation.

5. Long-lasting antibacterial effect: Nanosilver particles can be gradually released in the human body, and the antibacterial effect is long-lasting.

6. Safety and environmental protection: The safety of nano silver ions is the safety of silver. As early as the Ming Dynasty, "Compendium of Materia Medica" recorded that "raw silver tastes spicy, cold and non-toxic."

Using a silver kettle to boil water can also preserve it and keep it fresh. Even if the water is kept in the silver kettle for several days, it will not deteriorate. Moreover, boiling water in a silver kettle can also detect poisons, reduce inflammation, remove moisture, purify water quality, and prolong life. Long-term use can accelerate metabolism and enhance resistance. This shows the obvious benefits of boiling water in a silver kettle for the body.

The pH value of drinking water is between 6.5 and 8.5, with the optimal value being 7.5. Ideal drinking water that is beneficial to human health must meet seven standards, two of which are essential: the water contains an appropriate amount of minerals needed by the human body and the pH value is slightly alkaline (7-8). Many experts have proposed the concept of "healthy water". In addition to meeting all the conditions of safe water, healthy water must also meet a series of indicators such as hardness, total dissolved solids, silica, etc. One of them that cannot be ignored is that the pH value must be greater than 7.
