Guest guest Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 What would be considered a good amount of zinc to take daily. I have had red blood cell tests for zinc,zinc-copper ratio, selenium, potassium and magnesium,and despite taking good supplements all are below the lowest of the range. On the other hand I have high calcium at the outer membrane of the mitochondria which I know is bad news. The only mineral that was ok was manganese. I have been taking good quality supplements for years at good doses, ie zinc around 40 -50 mg daily but they just don't seem to get into the cells.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 > In AI (p 167) Andy says to take zinc at 100 mg to start and reduce to > 50 mg once ALA is used as a chelator. J. usually knows better than I, but I'm pretty sure Andy no longer recommends lowering zinc when you start ALA. That was just something he did to be conservative before he had as much experience as he does now. W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
