Copper is required by our body for proper metabolism and strengthening of immunity. The daily norm is 2 mg, if you exceed it, the metal is harmful to health, and if you reduce it, there is a deficit. The body controls the reserves and can independently remove a large excess.

Why is copper important for the human body

Copper takes part in a variety of biochemical reactions and metabolic processes occurring in our bodies. In particular, it is worth noting its value in this aspect:

formation of red blood cells
it is part of collagen
it helps to form a collagen mesh and elastin fibers
it supports the elasticity of the skin and blood vessels

This metal is characterized by one important "beauty" function, i.e. it participates in the processes of pigmentation of hair and skin. If you are on the beach and sunbathing in direct sunlight, the body begins to actively produce melanin to protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation. If you allow yourself to sunbathe and at the same time sit on a strict diet, there is a risk that the body will fail and feel worse due to a lack of trace elements.

What is the danger of a copper shortage

If you use a small amount of protein or exclude it, there will always be a shortage of trace elements in the body. Therefore, when sunbathing, the skin will not receive protection and this will lead to premature aging, rapid loss of elasticity, and the appearance of a large number of wrinkles.

During periods of active growth of the body or in pregnant women, the consumption of the metal is significantly higher than the normal daily norm. Therefore, it is important to compensate for all the expenses of the trace element, observing a full diet or taking natural preparations.

The best source of the mineral is beef liver, as well as seafood, in particular, crabs and shrimp. Also, a considerable amount is present in seeds and nuts, mushrooms, and dried fruits. It is recommended to include all products in the diet in order to get copper from different sources.

How to get copper all the time

In order not to provoke a deficiency of a trace element in the body, it is necessary to adhere to the following recommendations:

do not drink a lot of alcoholic beverages.
do not consume foods with a high fructose content.
reduce the intake of iron-containing drugs, as they inhibit the absorption of copper.
use a proper diet.

Do not try to make a "super-rich in copper” lunch for yourself, because you will not be able to physically consume a large amount of one product. It is better to use a liver with a side dish or crabs with a salad for a meal and add nuts to a pie or casserole.

It is much more useful to snack on foods enriched with metal than to strive to consume them separately.
