Copper 3mg
Copper is involved in numerous biochemical reactions in human cells. Copper is a component of multiple enzymes, is involved with the regulation of gene expression, mitochondrial function/cellular metabolism, connective tissue formation, as well as the absorption, storage, and metabolism of iron. Copper levels are tightly regulated in the body. Most copper is excreted in bile with minimal reabsorption in the gastrointestinal tract (and minimal urinary excretion).
- The U.S. RDA (recommended daily allowance)for copper is 900mcg for adults.
