    Glossary Copper Deficiency

    insufficient copper levels impair red blood cell formation

    Copper deficiency, also known as hypocupremia, is a condition where the body has insufficient levels of copper, an essential trace mineral. This deficiency can lead to various health issues, including anemia, weakened immune function, and neurological problems. Copper is crucial for the formation of red blood cells, the maintenance of nerve cells, and the immune system, so its deficiency can have widespread effects on overall health.
