Copper is an essential trace element found in all body tissues. Along with iron, it helps metabolize food into hemoglobin. It performs essential enzymatic functions, including catalyzing the antioxidant superoxide dismutase. In the body, copper helps produce red blood cells and connective tissue, and facilitates oxygen utilization in cells. It has also been found to help prevent loss of pigmentation in hair and skin. Unchelated copper is poorly absorbed by the intestines and must be chelated with amino acids before the body can use it. Trophic's chelated copper is manufactured under precise conditions that are almost identical to those that produce chelates in nature. As a result, the body obtains the best possible utilization and absorption of copper. Manufactured using Albion's patented process, Trophic's copper, chelated with natural amino acids, offers superior biological activity, bioavailability and absorption.
