Read your multivitamin label, (hopefully before you buy it). Follow these simple steps
- If it contains no copper then don't buy it.
- Does it contain copper oxide, this can be written as chemical formula as CuO or CuO2. If so don't buy it, cause you cannot absorb this type of copper
- Is it a copper salt, this would be things such as copper chloride, copper sulphate, copper carbonate. In chemical terms this is CuCl, CuSO4 CuCO3. Copper salts is the minimum standard for purchasing a multivitamin
- It is even better if it is a copper chelate. For example copper gluconate, copper glycinate, and others, sometimes they are written as amino acid chelate, or amino acid bound to copper.
So this provides a very good rule of thumb.
