Q: When Should I Use This Product?

A: Due to the lower bioavailability of plant based zinc, deficiency can be a particular issue for vegetarians and vegans. To prevent zinc deficiency, women need at least 8 mg of zinc daily (that need increases to 11 mg during pregnancy and 12 mg when breastfeeding), while men require at least 11 mg of zinc each day. That's a minimum requirement. For optimal health and targeted support (think immunity), zinc needs are thought to be even higher (15 to 30 mg). Zinc can also hinder your body’s ability to absorb copper, potentially leading to a deficiency in this key mineral over time. Furthermore, zinc supplements have been shown to interfere with the absorption of certain antibiotics, reducing their effectiveness if taken at the same time. To reduce your risk of side effects, stick to the recommended dosage and avoid exceeding the tolerable upper limit of 40 mg per day.

Q: Who Can Benefit?

A: Zinc supplements are generally well tolerated, though they’ve been associated with adverse side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach pain in some people. Exceeding 40 mg per day of elemental zinc can cause flu-like symptoms like fever, coughing, headache, and fatigue. Additionally, vegetarians and vegans may benefit the most since, as previously mentioned, bioavailability of plant based zinc is typically low.
