You can go to skinbiology dot com and read most of Loren Pickart s work. I used it ¦ ¦ ¦.must be well over 20 years ago when it first came out. Does it do anything ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦..who really knows. Very hard to say as wrinkled skin most especially with women is a huge market and I suspect bigger than hair loss or healing. So when there is money to be made some people will do and say anything which makes getting at the truth very hard to do. Personally I believe the food that you put into your mouth is much better at healing the body while also increasing it s ability to perform providing it is healthy nutrient dense food. I know this from actual experience and personal results comparing myself to those in my age group.
Common sense would tell me if copper peptides were some type of miracle product after 20 years we would have realized it by now. It would be the talk of the town.
What is interesting about these types of products is after a few years something always new comes out as most realize the previous product didn t do much. It then becomes a consistent cycle of new product introduction every few years to keep generating revenue. Similar to the nutritional supplement industry. I can give you a list of probably close to 100 products each replacing the previous product over the span of close to 40-50 years. Just the way the system works.
Go with healthy food, the human body has been using it for thousands so years.
Now if you have a copper deficiency it might make a difference but then once again the best source is food as food presents the minerals to the body in a way that they can be used very efficiently. As noted below from the Weston A. Price Foundation. That second blurb is also interesting because if you are consuming a diet high in fructose which many processed foods are high in than you actually hindering healing. This is why diet and nutrient dense foods play a critical role in the process. Many think obtaining minerals and vitamins through a tablet is a good idea but food is always best.

Minerals are also ingested as integral parts of the foods we eat, in which case the minerals are held ionically in a claw-like way or "chelated" by a large molecule. Examples include chlorophyll (which chelates a magnesium atom), hemoglobin (which chelates an iron atom) and enzymes that chelate copper, iron, zinc and manganese.
Lysl oxidase is a copper-dependent enzyme that participates in the formation of collagen and elastin. Fructose seems to interfere with copper metabolism to such an extent that collagen and elastin cannot form in growing animals--hence the hypertrophy of the heart and liver in young males. The females did not develop these abnormalities, but they resorbed their litters
