Overview about the trace element, deficiency and menkes' syndrome, safety issues, suggested intake, and food sources.

COPPER OVERVIEW
Copper is an essential trace mineral that facilitates the activity of several enzymes. The mineral provides a role in the development and maintenance of the cardiovascular system, including the heart, arteries, and other blood vessels, the skeletal system, and the structure and function of the nervous system, including the brain. The highest concentration of copper is found in the brain and liver. Copper is found in all other tissues in varying amounts, and about 50 percent of the total copper content of the body is found in the bones and muscles. METHOD OF ACTION Copper is involved in respiration and the synthesis of hemoglobin. It is essential in the production of collagen and the neurotransmitter noradrenalin. It is an important blood antioxidant and prevents the rancidity of polyunsaturated fats. Copper is involved in numerous enzyme systems that break down or build up body tissues. It plays a role in the production of the skin pigment melanin by converting the amino acid tyrosine. The mineral is essential for the synthesis of phospholipids, which are a component of the myelin sheath that surrounds nerves. Absorption of copper takes place in the stomach and upper intestine. Approximately 30 percent of ingested copper is absorbed. Copper influences iron absorption and mobilization from the liver and other tissue stores. Absorption of the mineral is increased by acids and inhibited by calcium (Kirschmann, 1996).

Friends Of
Alexander Deihl
The "Friends of Alexander Deihl" is a non-profit organization
established to help children and their families who have been
affected by a crippling disorder or are terminally ill.
This organization is approved by the
Internal Revenue Service as a non profit
organization and is a member participant of the
Southeastern Pennsylvania United Way.
Our donor number is #10128.
The organization was named to honor Alexander Deihl, who is suffering from a disorder called Menkes Disease. Alex was born in 1992 and suffers from the rare neurodegenerative disease for which there is no known cure. Children affected with this disease rarely reach their fourth birthday. Our goal is to assist Alex's friends throughout the world who have special needs and have limited funding for things such as special chairs, car seats, exercise equipment, bath lifts, computers for the blind, ramps, or even toys that are improvised for use for the disabled. These items are all very expensive, but extremely necessary.

    "The Angry Puppet Syndrome" - by John Menkes
    Posted by bookofjoe on December 27, 2003 02:52 PM (See all posts by bookofjoe
    Filed under: Books Menkes is a pediatric neurologist at UCLA, famous for his discovery of Maple Syrup Urine Disease (you can guess the main sign), also known as Menkes' Disease or Menkes' Syndrome. I was in his clinic one afternoon during my peds rotation at UCLA Med School, where some kid whose disease was undiagnosable was brought in. Menkes walked into the room with all of us med students, interns, and residents behind him, looked at the kid, asked the mother a few questions, wiggled the kid's finger and wrists, said, "this is a case of so-and-so," and walked out of the room.

    Health Conditions and Diseases Nutrition and Metabolism Disorders ... Vitamins and Minerals Menkes' Syndrome Drugstore: Panasonic ES805S Men's Wet/Dry Travel Shaver - I bought this shaver on a whim, and to fullfil a panasonic $50 off $130 promotion. Its small, easy to manipulate, fairly quiet, easy to clean, and goes easy on the batteries. I use two shavers, a norelco to cut the long hairs and this one to touch-up the short hairs and leave my skin smooth. My one complaint is that you have to clean it fairly often, after about 3 big shaves. Well, it is a small travel shaver.
    Drugstore: Norelco 6756X Deluxe Advantage Wet/Dry Cordless Men's Razor - I upgraded to this razor from another brand which I felt was too rough on my face. This razor gives a nice smooth and quiet shave. The lotion dispenser works well. My two issues with the razor are: •Portability - The recharge holster is a modern looking gadget which looks cool but is too bulky for light traveling. In addition it needs a flat surface to sit on making it difficult to recharge at the nearest outlet to your suitcase in a hotel room. •Detached trimmer - My biggest disappointment with the razor is that the trimmer is a separate attachment that requires you to remove the shave blades and push in a different top. I prefer the all-in-one units with the flip-up trimmer. When I'm shaving (either in shower, bathroom sink, or car on the way to work) I don't really want to fumble with different attachments just to trim the side burns. Overall, nice shave but a bit clumsy on the usability. For me it's not worth the upgrade cost - I will probably return this.
