Which Brand of Molasses Contains Copper?

Posted By Ben (Sunnyvale, Ca) on 03/23/2012

Which brand of blackstrap molasses (preferably organic and unsulphured) actually contains copper? I have yet to find one that specifically states their product contains copper on the Nutritional Facts label: Plantation brand label shows 0% Copper, other brand labels don't list Copper.

I am looking for Blackstrap mollases with enough copper content in it. I havn't found one yet. A brand named ' Plantation Organic Blackstrap Unsulphured Molasses' contains 0% copper. Which one to buy?

Why not just purchase a good multivitamin for your copper? The multi I take has 100% of the RDA of copper.

Courtney from Granite Bay, Ca - The problem with multi-vitamins is they are made up of a lot of fillers and really don't give the results quite like the "foods" do. If your multi-vitamin does not break down completely with 20-30 minutes in a glass of water, then you might as well flush them down the toilet because that's the same result it will give you in your system. Molasses is a food and for me, it has worked instantly compared to multi-vitamins which they state usually need 3 months of continual taking before you start to notice benefits. Not to mention, so many vitamins can cost $$$$

Courtney, thanks but, the reason I asked was because BSM is generally touted as being "rich" in copper, not because I wanted the RDA of copper in my diet.
