Conversely, over-consumption of copper will lead to cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting in the short term, and can lead to depression, schizophrenia, hypertension, senility, and insomnia in the long term. Copper in large amounts can even be poisonous.

As far as copper in the groundwater very possible but I never mentioned living near a copper processing plant... Stalk much Smoker? I said copper mine. Btw we buy spring water for consumption. Not a fan of florides being added to city water.

Copper is definitely an essential mineral but in smaller quantities. Did you know you can consume too much copper just in your diet? Dont eat too much sesame seeds for instance. Adding copper to implants is just too risky in my opinion as it would require ensuring patient diet intake of copper is not going to cause problems. Always tricky to get patients to modify their behavior.

This same mechanism of galvanic and mechanically-assisted crevice corrosion has been observed in metal-on-polyethylene and ceramic components, suggesting an inherent biomechanical problem with current designs of the head-neck interface. We provide a review of the fundamental questions and answers clinicians and researchers must understand regarding corrosion of the taper, and its relevance to current orthopaedic practice.
