Copper is an essential trace mineral that helps activate enzymes important to energy metabolism. It is the key mineral in lysyl oxidase, an enzyme that weaves together collagen and elastin. Copper assists in the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells by facilitating iron absorption, and it is involved in protein metabolism, the production of RNA, and the synthesis of phospholipids used in the formation of myelin sheaths.
The product is formulated with high-quality vegan ingredients and is encapsulated in a vegetarian capsule with hypoallergenic plant fiber derived from pine cellulose. It is indicated for adults 18 and up.
