Copper bracelets, etc.

Anyone use any of this stuff? I sort of think this stuff is hooey, but but I am always open to learning.
My knees bug me from time to time from boxing and I am wondering if this might be good. I am taking a bunch of supplements for joints, but if it can help I'll use it.
Thanks.

They fall into the same category as Q-ray bracelets and those "balance bracelets"

I've used the copper bracelet. Can't say it had a noticeable positive impact. Science sounds appealing enough to believe but at the end of the day, I would say it's a gimmick. Just my opinion though.

Never dismiss something before you understand it, but in this case I cannot see how, by what physical-biological mechanism external copper would help.
First thing first:
1. Are you properly hydrated? (your urine must be clear at all times, dehydration can makes it's effects felt even days later after it was resolved)
2. Are you eating all the minerals you should?
3. How is your stress? Can you lower it?
4. Do blood work to see if you have any infection.
5. Are you making faulty movements, improper exercise form, sitting, position, shoes that have too much foam/are too soft?
After this, one can try other alternative stuff.
