This Trace Mineral May Help Slow Biological Aging

This isn’t a supplement story; it’s a diet pattern story. Copper-rich foods also deliver fiber, phytonutrients, and healthy fats that support anti-inflammatory balance.

• Aim for at least 0.9 mg of copper per day from whole foods. That’s the recommended daily allowance (RDA). Some new research suggests that 1.2–1.6 mg/day may optimize brain health for older adults.
  
• Here are the top food sources of copper:

A new study shows that small amounts of copper may help keep your cells younger, longer.

Make it delicious:

• Lunch: Lentil–quinoa bowl with arugula, tahini-lemon dressing, and sesame seeds.
  
• Dinner: Seared salmon (or tofu) with farro, spinach, and walnut–herb pesto.
  
• Snack: Dark chocolate with a handful of cashews.

Bonus points: Combine copper-rich foods with other anti-inflammatory staples like olive oil, herbs, cruciferous vegetables, and berries, and cut back on ultra-processed foods and added sugars.

Tiny Swaps, Big Payoffs:

• Swap croutons for toasted sunflower seeds on salads.
• Stir cacao powder into Greek yogurt.
• Trade one refined-grain side for lentils or farro a few times a week.
• Finish roasted greens with tahini and lemon.

How to Boost Copper Absorption Naturally

Even the healthiest diet can fall short if your body isn’t absorbing minerals efficiently. Here’s how to make copper work harder for you:

• Pair with vitamin C: Combine copper sources with citrus, bell peppers, or broccoli to enhance absorption.
  
• Balance [zingk]nounA mineral important for immune function and wound healing.Learn More intake: High-dose zinc can block copper uptake — so avoid unnecessary zinc supplements.
  
• Rethink iron dosing: Large doses of iron can interfere with copper absorption; use only when prescribed. (For me I need to take iron pills so I pass the hemoglobin test to donate blood; I'm O negative(Univesal donor), so very popular.)
  
• Add healthy fats: Enjoy copper-rich meals with avocado, nuts, or olive oil to improve mineral transport.
  

A few small shifts, like sprinkling sunflower seeds on a salad, savoring dark chocolate, or cooking with mushrooms and chickpeas, can keep your cells younger and your brain sharper. No megadoses required! Just mindful, mineral-rich meals that work as hard as you do.
