Discover the secret benefits of copper

Copper, an essential mineral, can help rebuild connective tissue that was damaged through injury, and, due to copper’s role in maintaining body cells and tissues, it can play an important part in preventing muscle and joint pain. Copper is sometimes used as a natural treatment for arthritis, according to Dr. Josh Axe, DC, DNM, CNS.

Copper assists in reducing inflammation and pain. Copper is also an important component to maintaining collagen and elastin, which have effects on joint and ligament health.
