Angstrom Liquid Ionic Copper    

Copper is classified as an essential mineral because copper deficiencies can produce various symptoms.  Copper is usually found in foods containing iron.  The liver and brain contain the largest amounts of copper in the human body, however, other organs will contain smaller amounts.  “The human body contains 75 to 100 mg of this trace mineral.  Although copper is found in all tissues, its greatest concentrations are in the brain and liver.”⁴²

If the body does not acquire a sufficient amount of copper, hemoglobin production is decreased and copper deficiency anemia can result.  Insufficient amounts can lead to inefficient utilization of iron and protein, diarrhea and stunted growth.  Various enzyme reactions require copper.  “Traces of copper are present in all body tissues.  It is a partner in the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells because of its ability to increase iron assimilation.”⁴³

            Long term use of oral contraceptives can upset the balance of copper in the body causing either excessively high cholesterol levels.  For the body to work properly it must maintain the proper balance of copper and zinc; and imbalance can lead to thyroid problems.  In addition, low (and high) copper levels can be found in those with mental and emotional problems. “In those schizophrenic patients whose copper levels are high, the zinc level is often found to be depressed.  Zinc and copper act like a “see-saw,”one going up as the other comes down.  Both are closely related to the functioning of nervous tissue.”⁴⁴
