Did you know that homes used to be built with copper pipes & it was considered the gold standard? 🏆👀 Makes total sense with its antibacterial + healing properties. Copper is important for our body & considered one of the top 2 trace minerals linked to a long life 🌱 ✨Copper Benefits: * Essential for brain health. * Lowers inflammation, as it is part of the Vitamin C complex. * Collagen boosting. * Melanin supporting. Copper is a co-factor for several enzymes. Melanin is the pigment that gives your skin, hair, & eyes color. * Builds neurotransmitters in the brain & nervous system. Copper helps to create these transmitters (like serotonin). Lack of neurotransmitters can affect your mind & mood. * Boosts the immune system. ✨Signs of Copper deficiency: * Anemia * Immune system problems * Low white blood cells * Thyroid issues * Loss of collagen * Joint pain * Back pain * Hair loss * Loss of melanin in hair, skin, or eyes (premature greying of hair) * Neurological or Nervous system issues ✨Copper rich foods: * Beef liver * Oysters * Mushrooms * Chocolate (real chocolate not fake ones) * Pecans 🌱Check my Stories or “Nourish” highlight on IG for the link to my copper water vessel & cups.
