What is the difference between copper gluconate and glycinate?

Pure Encapsulations Copper (glycinate) is a chelated form of copper. Much like copper gluconate which is copper bound to gluconic acid, glycine is bound to the copper. A mineral chelate is when the complex forms a protective shell around the mineral, offering support for digestion stability and absorption. Both chelated forms of copper would have similar bioavailability.

Q:Is any part of this product (raw material, capsule, etc) sourced from China?

How does the reviewer know that no ingredients are sourced from China. Most supplements have something in them sourced from China. Be careful how you answer, site your source.

Why are these copper pills solid blue ? The previous ones were white with blue specs

Copper is characteristically a blue color. Some copper lots have a low density when measured, so the weighing team uses more by volume (but not by dose) to make up for that. This does affect the shade of blue of the copper. The variation you are observing is common, and does not affect the quality or viability of the product.

What is the difference between copper glycinate vs copper citrate?

Both copper citrate and copper glycinate would be comparable for absorption. Some individuals prefer citrate forms of minerals because of the number of studies on this mineral chelate, others look to avoid citrates as some individuals can have trouble tolerating them (this is rare).
