Slightly off topic - human need for copper
This caught my eye today! Humans need more copper, too.

Ummmmmm, that thought crossed my mind.  As we don't have four stomachs, I don't think it would work that way for us.

Good. I don't want to be bolused. Yuck.
I'm not going to dip a marshmallow into copper sulfate, either.

It's why goat milk is so good for us.
Humans need copper and selenium as well. Goats put a LOT more copper and selenium into their milk than cows, so goat milk addresses OUR deficiency issues as well.

Funny you should mention that.
Eating peanut butter makes me feel poor sometimes. Nick loves the stuff, though. But I feel bad even when HE eats it!
So much for peanut butter and copper sulfate.

If you are going to be like that, then one of us just might have to take a bolus gun and shoot it down your throat
I use peanut butter and mine has a warning label on it that says:
Do Not Use
Poison Peanut Butter!
So now I know if they accidentally eat it they may have different color hair in a couple of weeks, but they will be ok. I bet they won't think so, lol.

Hmmm, Thai, now THAT is a thought!
How much graying as we get older might be due to copper deficiency?

You must have bad peanut butter...like Peter Pan or Jif. GAG, PUKE, HURL!
Have you ever made your own? It is delightful and will make you feel rich and superior to those eating the nasty stuff pumped out for the masses.

You can buy colloidal copper at a lot of health food stores and health clinics and other alternative places. I 'think' that you have to careful with it though because it is toxic in high doses unlike gold or silver. I've never taken extra copper alone for that reason. But if you take trace mineral compounds you will get it in a tiny amount just right for your body.

I prefer to make macadamia nut butter. It is so good.

Commercial farming is killing us - the soil is depleted of minerals  Normal soil flora that would ordinarily convert minerals into forms usable by plants can't survive all the chemicals.

I think I've just found the bright side to the Koppertox coating my hands usually end up with when I do hooves! Now if I could just put a better spin on that smell!

Peanut butter sandwiches daily for the majority of my grade school/high school career (though I did get the occasional liversausage - YUM!) I'm just not that into peanut butter. I know why my mom had to use it so much (I'm the second of seven children), but...
Yuck. Even if it would return my hair color to its original state.
