Copper is a metal that is found in food. It is found in foods like pistachios. An excess of copper is called Wilson's Disease and can result in a bluish ring around the colored part of the eye. Excess copper in the body is toxic and can be removed via chelation therapy.

Is there copper in blood?

Copper, and other metals are often used sparingly by the body in the formation of certain enzymes and protein structures. IRON is a prime example as it forms the bases of the protein Hemoglobin which transports gases through the body. Unlike iron, the body needs very little copper to function properly, in fact, copper helps the body to absorb iron for creating red blood cells. Most copper in the body is limited to metal-containing enzymes, the copper has to be transported through the body to where it's needed, so there is a small, small amount of copper in the blood (while its transported to organs where its needed).
