Kupfer 2 mg
The copper supply for targeted intake
Copper: component of numerous enzymes
Copper is one of the lesser known trace elements. Copper is a component of numerous enzymes and is involved in many different metabolic processes. For example, copper is involved in the formation of connective tissue, the transport of iron in the body or in the metabolism of nerves and energy. It contributes to the normal immune functions and is involved in the antioxidative defence system of the body. The long-term intake of greater quantities of zinc can impair the copper supply. Copper and zinc compete with one another to be absorbed in the body. Therefore, attention should be paid to a sufficient copper intake in case of long-term zinc intake.
Biogena Kupfer 2 mg: for targeted increase of the copper supply
Biogena Kupfer 2 mg contains copper in the form of cupric citrate, which can be easily absorbed by the body. The targeted intake of Biogena Kupfer 2 mg can increase the copper supply when there is increased requirement and is also recommended in cases of greater copper losses – for example, due to specific drugs or the regular intake of zinc.

FAQ
At Biogena, “pure substance principle” means that we do not use technological additives which are used for the fully automated manufacturing of tablets, capsules and pills (e.g. anticaking or release agents and so forth) or additives that are used for optical reasons or for enhancing the taste of the products (artificial aroma, colouring agents, coatings etc.). Due to a semi-automatic manufacturing process, we can avoid these substances that often have a higher proportion in customary products than the actual active ingredients. In the case of nutritional supplements, additives have to be indicated in the list of ingredients. Here, the patient or customer can get useful information. Concerning the single ingredients, we also care for our raw materials to be free of carrier substances. In cases where this is not possible, we use natural food components such as maltodextrin, cellulose powder or calcium carbonate. The majority of our ingredients is produced exclusively for us – free of carrier substances (e.g. our enzymes our probiotics: other manufacturers often use lactose as a carrier – the product batches produced for us are explicitly without carriers).
