Let me be the first to suggest that replacing copper by silver would be an improvement. (Or maybe not.)

If I accidentally swallow a penny and a gum ball comes out, that would be some strange science indeed.

"Why don't we think a hundred times better than we do?"

Actually, I do think a hundred times better than I do. Copper intake helps. So does barley malt and hops...

hardly any fix so simple works effectively and has only the intended consequences in systems so complex as living ones. don't get your hopes up.

Actually, everything in the Universe - with, perhaps, the exception of libRats - runs on basic universal laws. Things are extremely complicated and at the same time, simple.

Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity.

All living things, including us, operate on an bioelectric system, as it were.

Get the "connection"?

Add to the equation the fact that most of the foods we eat today are grown in nutrient/mineral depleted soil...ergo, our bodies no longer get the minerals we need....while, at the same time, getting more of what harms us, like aluminum.

And we see the rise of Alzheimer's - caused by the brains cells not "making the connections" -

Simple?
