Re: Copper Question

Newport has some good posts on the parasite forum about copper, if you go there and do a search for it, but I think this one post in particular from Newport helped me understand the copper balance better:

Yes, that set off some alarm bells with me too.
But don't get too strict in interpretation of any or this. IMO the key to it all is the difference between bio-Available and bio-Unavailable copper.

For simplicity sake lets call bio-Unavailable oxidized copper (OCu). After seeing what IP6 does I am a firm believer that the problem is a shortage of Cu and an excess of OCu...

I believe (I read somewhere) copper is used as the oxidizer to change Iodide storage to Iodine by the thyroid so without fresh copper your endocrine system fails yet you may be loaded with OCu... Tweet
