COPPER
(CU)
INGREDIENTS
Each 2 ml (0.07 fl.oz.) ampoule contains
0.725 mg of copper from copper gluconate.
MODE OF ACTION
Copper forms the central element in a number of
metaloenzymes which can help neutralize many toxins and
high levels of certain biochemicals in the blood. Copper can
stimulate the immune system and increases multiplication of
B-lymphocytes and the synthesis of antibodies. Most copper
is stored in the liver, heart, brain, spleen, kidneys and usually
bound to proteins such as ceruloplasmin, cytochrome oxidase
(liver detoxification) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Copper
is essential for decreasing acute and chronic bacterial and viral
infections. Copper is also required in the production of various
hormones (catecholamine).

KNOWN USES
Copper has been traditionally used as an essential oligoelement
and for states of infection and inflammation. In oligotherapy,
copper has multiple, enzymatic functions, most notably
the cythochrome C oxydase, which is responsible for the
oxygenation in the respiratory chain and in the elaboration of
elastin and collagen fibres. Copper is indicated for all infectious
and viral states, such as flu and inflammatory rheumatism.
Copper is a mineral that is a factor in the maintenance of good
health, and also helps to produce red blood cells and connective
tissue in humans (NHPD, 2004a).
