| 1. Solaray's Copper 2mg 100Caps | |
| Copper 2 mg by Solaray contains 100% of the daily requirement for the body. Copper is needed to absorb and utilize iron. It is also part of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD). Copper is needed to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy the body runs on. Synthesis of some hormones requires copper, as does collagen (the "glue" that holds muscle tissue together) and tyrosinase (the enzyme that puts pigment into the skin). Copper deficiency can occur in people who supplement with zinc without also increasing copper intake. Zinc interferes with copper absorption. Health consequences of zinc-induced copper deficiency can be quite serious. In the absence of copper supplementation, vitamin C supplementation has also been reported to mildly impair copper metabolism. Copper deficiency can cause anemia, a drop in HDL cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol), and several other . . . | |
