“…Molybdenum fed to ruminants, but not when fed to non-ruminants, was shown to cause copper deficiency [18][19][20]. Then it was realized that the sulfur-rich rumen was converting molybdenum to thiomolybdates [21], and these compounds were found to have anticopper activity in all animals, with the tetra-sulfur compound, TM, being the most potent [22][23][24].…”

“…However, all of its side effects in animals are due to copper deficiency, that is, copper supplementation prevents all TM toxicity [24]. TM acts as an anticopper agent by forming a tight tripartite complex with copper and protein [22][23][24][25]. Given with food, TM complexes food copper with food protein and prevents copper absorption [26][27][28][29].…”

“…We placed patients on the regimen to be studied for several weeks before the study to allow complete washout of former therapies. With no therapy we saw an average of +0.25 mg/day positive copper balance and high absorption of orally administered 64 copper. A dose as low as 25 mg of zinc/day reduced the average positive balance significantly but did not consistently control copper balance or 64 copper uptake.…”

“…With no therapy we saw an average of +0.25 mg/day positive copper balance and high absorption of orally administered 64 copper. A dose as low as 25 mg of zinc/day reduced the average positive balance significantly but did not consistently control copper balance or 64 copper uptake. The same can be said for 25 mg × 2, 50 mg × 1 and 75 mg × 1.…”
