Well, all I can say is it worked for me. It was
actually recommended to me by a doctor (not on
a medical visit, we were just talking nutrition
at the time...), and I have definitely seen an
increase. All I take is a 50mg Zinc tablet
twice a day with meals and about two glasses of
water. Now, as I said previously, I also have
increased my water intake, so these two may be
related. Also, I seriously doubt that I was
really deficient in Zinc to begin with, since I
got 30mg in my multi vitamin every day (GNC
Solotron). So I don't know. Maybe I'll back off
on the extra Zinc for a while, but keep drinking
the same amount of water and see what happens.
Maybe I won't now that I think about it, because
these forums have gotten to the point where no
one believes anything anybody says (although I
must admit there is a LOT of bullshit flying
around here). Like I posted before, what the hell
type of benefit could I get from getting people to
take Zinc (no, I don't own a supplement company!).
All I know is, it was recomended to me, and it
appears to have worked.
