DML - Is copper in CeraLift healthy?
Copper is a naturally occurring element that’s essential for many bodily functions. It’s found in a wide range of food — there’s even trace amounts in drinking water — making it easy to get enough in your diet.
The mineral is necessary for energy production, maintaining your blood vessels, and supporting your immune system. Copper is also available as a supplement either on its own or included in multivitamins, though most people get enough through food.
Our bodies cannot produce copper independently, so we need to get the mineral from foods in our diet. Copper requirements increase with age, but on average, adults should get 900 micrograms of the mineral every day. The upper limit for adults aged 19 years and above is 10,000 mcg, or 10 milligrams (mg) a day.
CeraLift contains 2 mg per capsule. The dose is 1 capsule per day.
Because our bodies naturally release any extra copper we don’t need, copper toxicity is very rare.
Of course, if you have take a medication or have a known medical condition you should always check with your doctor before taking any supplement to make sure it's 100% safe for you.
