Article Synopsis
- Intermittent hypoxia (IH), which means going without oxygen for short times, can cause fatty liver disease when there's not enough copper in the diet.
- In experiments with mice, those with low copper levels showed more liver problems and stress when exposed to IH compared to those with normal copper levels.
- The researchers found that low copper increased certain proteins that help fat build up in the liver and lead to more damage, suggesting that not eating enough copper can make liver issues worse when facing IH.
