Re: Copper and Candida

Actually increased copper is a sign that your body is fighting an infection. Copper is used to as an anti-bacterial and fungal agent. A copper material placed on or in the body will kill bacteria which would normal defend candida yeast, as well as upset the PH balance. This is why candida grows. Also, if a test show that you have high copper levels, and you know that you have candida, that does not mean the HIGH COPPER LEVELS are causing the candida. This is not related to the copper material placed inside of ones body. This simply means that your bodies natural defense against candida, copper, is at high levels due to an attack. Same goes for white blood cells and infection, hence how a hospital can tell if you have an infection. The infection is not caused by white blood cells, hence copper does not cause candida infection.
