What foods contain copper?


Question:
My six year old has a few strands of grey hair and my brother seems to think that it's due to a copper deficiency.

Answers:
I was told by my nutritionist that the best sources of copper are liver, oysters and lobster. However, my son is a vegetarian, so when he had a deficiency we had to go with barley, seeds (sunflower, pumpkin etc.) and cooked turnip greens and mushrooms.

Other Answers:
It's probably genetics, some children do get grey hairs.
