For decades, iron deficiency has been treated with endless iron pills, yet many people still struggle with fatigue, anemia, and low energy. Could the real problem be a missing mineral? In this episode of Chasing Eden: Natural Health God’s Way, Caroline Thompson uncovers the forgotten role of copper—a mineral essential for iron metabolism, energy production, and vitality.
From the days when copper pipes and cookware infused our water and meals, to today’s soil-depleted, plastic-piped world, we’ve slowly removed copper from our lives. The result? Rising rates of fatigue, iron deficiency, and connective tissue problems. Drawing on the insights of Dr. Eric Berg, Dave Asprey, Gary Brecka, Dr. Ardis, and Dr. Barbara O’Neill, we’ll explore how copper supplementation—through foods, capsules, or even copper vessels—can restore balance and energy.
We’ll also look at the practical ways to bring copper back into your daily routine, the importance of balancing copper with zinc, and how to avoid common mistakes. If you’ve ever felt drained despite taking iron, this episode could change the way you think about minerals and your health.
