Definitely don't supplement zinc! Just eat a little more meat!

Personally I eat oysters very often, but any kind of meat is a good

source of zinc, so it's definitely not a nutrient you need to resort

to pills for. It's near the top of the list of pro-carnivory

arguments by the way; it's either difficult or impossible to get

enough from non-carnivorous diets.

One year of eating meat post-vegetarianism has brought my zinc levels to normal.

So I'll second Mike's recommendation.
