Kupferbisglycinat
High quality copper for sensitive persons
The trace element copper appears in different compounds, whereby one can distinguish between organic and inorganic copper forms. In the organic copper bisglycinate compound, the trace element is bound to two amino acids "L-glycine". This "chelated" form gives the compound special properties, such as high bioavailability and excellent tolerability. Copper bisglycinate is absorbed by the body as an amino acid rather than as a mineral. As a result, copper does not have to compete with other minerals for absorption from the intestine, as is usually the case.
Copper bisglycinate also scores in terms of tolerability. With copper bisglycinate, we are fulfilling the frequently expressed wish for a citrate-free copper variant. Especially for those who are sensitive to citrates, this compound is the perfect alternative to the proven copper citrate. We offer our copper bisglycinate in the usual copper dosage of 2 mg per capsule per day.
Copper: The chameleon among trace elements
While many trace elements are attributed one main task, copper impresses with its diversity. As a component of numerous enzymes, copper is involved in very different bodily functions. It plays a role in the nervous system and energy metabolism, supports the body's immune system and helps protect cells from oxidative stress. But our appearance is also shaped by copper. The shimmering orange trace element not only contributes to the formation of normal connective tissue, but also to the normal pigmentation of skin and hair. In everyday life, both animal and plant foods provide us with copper. In particular, seafood is generally considered to be rich in copper. However, green vegetables, grain products, legumes and chocolate also serve as good sources of copper. In certain situations, additional supplementation may be appropriate. Long-term zinc supplementation or taking certain medications can be detrimental to copper absorption.
