Foods richest in Copper

Copper is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in human health. It is involved in various biological processes, including red blood cell formation, immune system maintenance, and nerve function regulation. Copper is also important for energy production and the synthesis of collagen in the skin and connective tissues. Good sources of copper include seafood, nuts and seeds, meat and poultry, whole grains, and some vegetables. The daily requirement of copper varies by age and gender, with the recommended intake for adults being between 0,9 to 1 mg.
