Comments
Copper is the third most abundant trace element in the human body required for enzymatic reactions. Dietary
sources of copper are liver, shell fish, chocolate, nuts and seeds. Copper pipes or vessels do not increase the
copper content of water unless exposed to acids. Smoking, strenuous exercise, infections and injuries
increase the body’s need for copper. Ceruloplasmin, a copper containing protein is a useful indicator of copper
status.
Increased Levels
Wilson’s disease , Chronic active hepatitis, Biliary cirrhosis, Rheumatoid arthritis & proteinuria
Decreased Levels
Protein malnutrition
