Copper is a mineral that is vital for building tissue, producing energy in cells and maintaining blood volume. It also helps to prevent anemia. It is recommended that infants between birth and one year of age take between 0.2 milligrams and 0.22 milligrams per day. Children between one year of age and 13 years of age require between 0.34 milligrams and 0.7 milligrams daily. Teens between the ages of 14 and 18 should take in 0.89 milligrams daily. The daily requirement for adults is 0.9 milligrams per day. Pregnant and lactating women require between 1.1 milligrams and 1.3 milligrams daily. A slow metabolism or adrenal issues can result in copper toxicity. Diet, digestive issues or poor absorption due to bariatric surgery can all cause copper deficiencies. The use of copper dates back to ancient times.
