In my medical practice, I never worried about Zinc deficiency.
If a patient was on a strict weight-reduction diet I would advise a multivitamin with minerals.
After reading The End of Alzheimer's by Dr. Dale Bredesen, I have increased my Zinc intake from
11 to 33mg. Taking more than 50 mg/day can be toxic.
I also enrolled in the Bredesen recode program at the Lawrence Atma Holistic clinic.
I was told I have a good copper: zinc ratio? I never heard of this before, only that we should have a low copper level. For exams, I learned about the genetic disorder Wilsons disease. I never saw a case.
