Vegan foods high in Copper

The copper content in food tells you less than you might think. Plant- based copper binds to compounds like phytates that the body struggles to absorb, while copper in meat and shellfish reaches your bloodstream more readily. A food high on this ranking may deliver significantly less usable copper than the table suggests.

Copper concentrates in organ meats, shellfish, nuts, seeds, and legumes. Most people in industrialised countries get enough from a varied diet without counting it. The Daily Value is 0.9 mg; this threshold was set for deficiency prevention, not for optimal intake across different ages and activity levels.

FDA daily value: 0.9 mg
