ZINC-COPPER
(ZN-CU)
INGREDIENTS
Each 2 ml (0.07 fl.oz.) ampoule contains
0.0674 mg of zinc from zinc gluconate, and
0.0726 mg of copper from copper gluconate.
MODE OF ACTION
The catalytic complex of Zn-Cu is essentially used in problems
associated with the regulation of steroid secretion. These oligo-
elements also play an essential role in skin and inflammatory
disorders via superoxide dismutase. Zinc and copper are
essential for proper endocrine function (hypothalamo-pituitary,
adrenal, etc.). Copper functions as the central element in the
metallo-enzyme, dopamine-hydroxylase, which is essential
for the synthesis of norepinephrine by the adrenal gland.
Deficiencies of zinc and copper effect affect neurotransmitters
and histamine release in the brain, thus effecting also affecting
neurological behavior.

KNOWN USES
Zinc-copper has been traditionally used in oligotherapy to
support the thyroid and endocrine systems. It has been used to
address the functional problems of benign prostatic hypertrophy
(BPH), hormonal development abnormalities in children. ZnCu
can also resolve the symptoms of pituitary dysfunction as well
as treat the pituitary/genital maladaptation syndrome. In
summary, zinc can assist the pituitary and gonads, while copper
assists the adrenals.
