"...my GP, who btw doesn't know anything about heavy metals."

I hear you. I am the poster child for that. My endocrinologist was award winning in my metropolis and a former med school prof.

While your doc probably did not learn much about it in Big Pharma controlled med school, your insurance coverage might also be a factor. If the doc knows your not covered, why bother discussing it?

Some tests are available to people in most states from directlabs.com and similar sites. The results might be interesting to both your GP and to a chiropractor or other natural practitioner.

The challenge for you would be to order the correct set of tests. For some problems you really need several tests to get a better feel for what your body is doing with the analyte. I honestly don't know what that is for Cu.

High copper has not been one of my problems. However A Cutler suggests that people with a cadmium problem might prefer more Cu. I had cadmium in the red on a hair test while chelating HMs.

I think I have a pretty good feel for it now. I have some small doses available in my daily supplement containers. When I feel too lethargic I take a little extra. When I feel hyperactive and hypermotivated I back off. Cu is involved in production of noradrenaline as you'll read in various sources, for example
http://www.holistic-back-relief.com/copper-toxicity.html

Maintaining a balance has been challenging for me. As expected with high lead and cadmium I have AD(H)D. If I don't get enough catecholamine support I'll be lethargic and unfocused--inattentive ADD. If I take too much copper, it will exacerbate the H in ADHD.

Foods high in phenols tend to do that as well probably since both Catecholamines and phenols need sulfate for breakdown.
