Difficulties Walking

Proper walking may be more difficult for those with copper deficiencies. Copper is used by enzymes to keep the spinal cord in top condition. Enzymes have a role in the spinal cord's insulation, enabling the transmission of messages from the brain to the body. Less spinal cord insulation might result from these enzymes not functioning as well as they should due to copper shortage. As a result, signals are not transmitted as effectively.

In fact, the copper shortage may result in a 56% reduction in the insulation of the spinal cord, according to animal research. Signals between the brain and body control walking. Copper deficiency may result in loss of coordination and shakiness because these signals are impacted.
