An pilot in vivo study involving 56 Diabetic patients found that the use of copper soled socks facilitated improvement in the common manifestations of tinea pedis (athlete's foot) including erythema, scaling, fissuring, burning, itching, and vesicular eruptions.  No patients worsened or showed adverse reactions while wearing copper-oxide impregnated socks. (Zatcoff R, et al.  as in Podiatry Today, Dec. 2011)

This evidence shows the benefits of copper in healing different foot conditions and we may in the future develop other wound healing medicines or products from this important finding.
