Copper Bisglycinate: A Highly Absorbable Copper for Foundational Support*
Thorne’s Copper Bisglycinate provides an essential trace mineral in a superior, chelated form for optimal absorption. Copper is a crucial cofactor for numerous enzymes in the body and plays a vital role in cardiovascular health, bone density, and immune function. Although the body only needs small amounts, a consistent supply is necessary for these foundational processes. This formula delivers pure, well-tolerated copper bisglycinate, making it an ideal choice for individuals seeking to support their long-term health and wellness.*
How It Works: The Chelated Mineral Advantage
Many mineral supplements can be difficult for the body to absorb. This formula utilizes a true mineral chelate to ensure superior bioavailability.*
Support for Heart, Bone, and Skin
Copper is essential for the function of lysyl oxidase, an enzyme required for the cross-linking of collagen and elastin. This process is fundamental to the health and strength of bones, skin, and blood vessels. In addition, copper is a key component of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), which helps protect cells from oxidative damage. Therefore, it is a vital nutrient for maintaining a healthy heart and promoting vibrant skin and strong bones.*
Enhanced Absorption for Optimal Benefit
Thorne’s Copper Bisglycinate features TRAACS®, a patented form where copper is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. This creates a stable molecule that is readily absorbed in the intestines without competing with other minerals. This enhanced absorption ensures your body gets the full benefit from this essential trace mineral.*
