Copper-Infused Yarn: Antimicrobial Benefits for Diabetic Socks

Copper—an essential mineral used for health benefits for millennia—powers Glucology™ socks with broad-spectrum antimicrobial action and skin regeneration. Permanent copper-infused yarn kills germs, eliminates odour, and upregulates collagen/elastin production, making it ideal for diabetic foot health, neuropathy, and infection prevention.
