So, what is copper sulphate?

Copper sulphate is a versatile inorganic compound that is widely used as a food ingredient and additive in various industries. It is a blue crystalline substance that is soluble in water and has a bitter metallic taste. Copper sulphate is commonly used as a fungicide, herbicide, and pesticide in agriculture and is added to animal feed as a nutritional supplement. It is also used as a colorant and preservative in the food industry, and in the production of copper-based alloys and pigments. Although copper sulphate has potential health benefits, excessive consumption can be harmful, making it important to regulate its use in food products.
