The RDA for adults, depending on which resource you consult and whether it is for males or females, and the referenced age, is somewhere between 8 - 14 mg for adults. The upper limit of safe intake is 40 mg. Notice that this product is 50 mg, and yes, that is OK, and that is because you will not absorb all of this zinc. However, zinc picolinate may be the best absorbed of the available supplements, as this form led to significant increases in hair, urine and erythrocyte zinc levels (Agents Actions. 1987 Jun;21(1-2):223-8). Other acceptable forms are Zinc Citrate and Zinc Gluconate. Some people do not seem to absorb Zinc oxide, and so I would not recommend that form (J Nutr. 2014 Feb;144(2):132-6. doi: 10.3945/jn.113.181487. Epub 2013 Nov 20.)
A second consideration is that unlike some other nutrients, the amount of zinc that you absorb will not depend on whether you had a deficiency or not, but upon your current intake. Zinc seems to be better absorbed from a supplement than from food, however, within 24 hours of supplementing zinc, absorption seems to be down-regulated (Int J Vitam Nutr Res. 2010 Oct;80(4-5):300-6. doi: 10.1024/0300-9831/a000037). Because the body adjusts to your zinc intake quite rapidly this is a supplement that should be taken regularly rather than one that you take only when you think you may need it. Exceptions may be days when you definitely eat enough high-zinc foods. Lists are readily available online- just use one that has the % RDA included, as some foods that appear on these lists have less than 10% of your RDA per serving so it is unlikely that you'd obtain enough through them. Zinc is essential for health, and it isn't easy to get it from food, though if you're having a huge porterhouse steak then you don't need to supplement that particular day!
A final consideration is that zinc must be kept in balance with copper. Copper is often over-looked because we do not need too much. However zinc blocks the absorption of copper, so when your zinc goes up, so does your need for copper. Yet, a study found that over 60% of those prescribed a zinc supplement were directed to take zinc at levels that would lead to a copper deficiency. Some of them actually were not deficient in zinc- your serum levels may be misleading if you have systemic inflammation or hypoalbuminaemia (J Clin Pathol. 2015 Sep;68(9):723-5. doi: 10.1136/jclinpath-2014-202837. Epub 2015 Jun 17). If you have been directed to take zinc by your physician, it is important that you also attend to your copper levels. If you are a patient with cancer, then work with your team on this, as you may require more strict, low levels of copper.
I would give this supplement 5 stars if it either included copper to prevent a supplement-induced deficiency, or if it included a warning of that risk on the label. As it is, someone may trade one problem for another, unaware that the supplement could be a contributing factor. I hope that this review is helpful to you. Let me know, and good health to you!
Find a 100% Chelate that is the best out there.
It’s was odd because I fixed my diet (less dairy and meat) anything with hormones basically I can still eat those things but I reduced my intake of them by at least 95%.
That plus drinking plenty of water, Asian skin care, black soap, tea tree oil, lemon oil, and sunscreen Collectively seem to have got my skin back to a more youthful glow and reduces dark spots.
But inspite of these improvements for some reason I couldn’t stop these lil white spots from appearing on my chin and around my mouth. By 5 pm new ones always grew and it was embarrassing!
Well ironically I had these things in my cabinet. I tend to by things and expect instant results and then stop using them.
Recently i recalled seeing some YouTube blogs where some people reported this brand of zinc could help with acne but what I had appeared to be more than acne so I said why not let’s give it a try again.
So I took 2! At night before I slept and 2 in the morning. Have a feeling my dosage is not medically approved and it’s possible my body isn’t processing all of this zinc.
However my white spots have not returned in 1 week. Also want to share that I work in a very stressful work environment and I’m sure that contributed to the bumps as well but inspite of those conditions nothing has surfaced.
Thank you!
Ordering a back up supply as we speak.
I am generally pretty healthy, but had a very bad cold a couple months ago, so I took these to make it go away. It didn't seem to end the cold any sooner, but I've been taking one capsule a day every since and have noticed a significant reduction in the frequency and intensity of my migraines. I've never heard of zinc helping with migraines and it hasn't been that long, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I generally have a migraine every 3 - 4 weeks and it lasts 3 - 4 days, and is so bad for at least 2 of the days that I can't eat, read, watch TV, or get out of bed except for uncontrollable vomiting several times a day. I've only had one 3-day headache since the cold, and was able to read and watch TV some, and had NO vomiting. That's in the past 8 weeks. I've been tracking the frequency of my migraines for 2 years now and the longest I've gone before without one has been 5 weeks. I try to figure out what causes them and try to behave in healthier ways, with some success, but this is radical, maybe just a coincidence, or something I haven't thought of is helping, but all I can think of is the zinc capsules. Also, less measurable, I realized a few days ago, that I'm happier, as in more content with what I'm doing, less bored and cranky -- go figure! I really hope it's the zinc, so I can guarantee these improvements by continuing to take it.
Has anyone else noticed an effect like this?
