Copper is valuable to the body. It is found in nuts, sunflower seeds, green olives, wheat bran (as in whole wheat,) liver, blackstrap molasses, cocoa, oysters and black pepper.

U.S. Dept. of Agriculture* has revealed that the current recommended dose of

copper after 4 1/2 months...lowered their immune system defenses and their
antioxidant blood levels."
