Copper in vitamins: Agree with dr. Huang about the amount of copper needed daily from food. At proper levels it's essential for enzyme function & promotes heart health & bone strength. Taking extra in vitamin form isn't necessary. In fact, excess inorganic copper has been linked to the development of alzheimer's disease. http://tinyurl.com/kgv37wr and http://tinyurl.Com/mcy8pem a copper-free vitamin could be wise.
