Copper is an essential trace mineral – the most abundant dietary trace mineral after iron and zinc.
Copper that is bioavailable is generally copper found within a protein such as the master antioxidant ceruloplasmin (a ferroxidase enzyme) which is a major copper-binding protein found in the liver. These proteins, when active and fully functional, can vigorously work in your body to reduce inflammation, oxidative stress and facilitate many metabolic processes.
One study found that higher blood levels of copper and iron were linked with lower total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (the “bad” kind).
It is argued that chelated forms tend to be the best forms. Chelated copper simply means that the copper has been bound to an amino acid (protein) in a laboratory in order to make it better for absorption.
Copper-dependent enzymes transport iron and load it into haemoglobin, a protein that carries oxygen through the blood. Copper-dependent enzymes also provide a natural defense against free radicals that damage the body; Defense against oxidative damage depends mainly on the copper-containing superoxide dismutases.
