Steps to increase BOUND Copper (=bioavailable Cu) and to reduce UNBOUND Copper (=toxic to the body tissue particularly to the brain) by increasing the Ceruloplasmin (CP) a protein, which is produced in the liver
Steps to Increase Ceruloplasmin (Cp):
o STOP Hormone-D ONLY Supplements (kills hepatic Vitamin A, which is a critical precursor to Cp production)
o STOP Calcium & Iron Supplements! (Ca BLOCKS Copper & Magnesium absorption and Fe is a clinical sign of Copper deficiency, and excess supplemental Iron SHUTS DOWN Copper metabolism.)
o STOP Ascorbic Acid (it CAUSES Copper to separate from Cp)
o STOP HFCS & Synthetic Sugars (HFCS, and excess Fruit (Fructose), in your diet as it is perfectly designed to LOWER Liver Copper and ELEVATE Liver Iron)
o STOP LOW Fat Diet (your brain needs good fat like butter or coconut oil!)
o STOP Using Industrialized, "Heart Healthy" Oils!
o Take more Magnesium (to stem the rise of ACTH which KILLS Cp production in the Liver)
o START Cod Liver Ooil (~1 Tbsp to deliver ~400 IUs of D, and ~7,500 - 9,000 IUs of Retinol/Vit-A a day)
o START Wholefood Vit-C (500-800 mgs/day to deliver the cofactors, Tyrosinase and Copper ions that the Liver needs for Cp production)
o START Boron -- 1-3 mgs/day, B plays a critical role in enhancing Liver function, and works with Vitamin-B2 to keep Copper & Iron in proper balance
o START Iodine when Mg & Se RBC are optimal - critical in the production of Cp
o START B2 (Riboflavin) -- Key for Cu/Fe regulation in Liver
o START Ancestral Diet (HIGH Fat/Protein/LOWCarb)
