Guest guest Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 I'm starting my dd on the zinc cream tonight. I'll be interested to see how she does on it. I also ordered the magnesium cream. I am just going to use this on days she won't stay in her epsom salt bath very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I would recommend the Zinc Magneisum creme from Kirkman's'; taking Zinc on an empty tummy can caus severe nausea; evne Zinc with food can cause Nausea; have you ever taken Zinc? I have; and i had the worst stomach ache; like a dull pain; I woulnd't give oral zinc ot Liquid Zinc at all; I'd use the creme. for those who disagree; go to store; buy Zinc; take Zinc at normal dose and then get back to me with your opinion. Zinc also causes throwing up. ZINC IS USED IN EXTRMELY MINUTE AMOUNTS such as in crmeme; for those who do not believe; buy some zinc an take it yourself; in fact I recommend the adults TEST EVERY SUPPLEMNET BEFORE GIVING.--- In , " Robyn " <RobynRG311@...> wrote: > > Hi all, > I have a little guy who hates taking supplements.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Anne; What is the transdermal uptake of Zn? Please substantiate with some citations. I have taken different doses of different forms of zinc after a fast and post postprandial and never experienced nausea. It is not reasonable to generalize your experience to others, especially in your case. I strongly agree that it is appropriate for parents to trial supplements before giving them to their children. - Will mothernaturerule wrote: > I would recommend the Zinc Magneisum creme from Kirkman's'; taking Zinc > on an empty tummy can caus severe nausea; > > evne Zinc with food can cause Nausea; have you ever taken Zinc? > > I have; and i had the worst stomach ache; like a dull pain; > > I woulnd't give oral zinc ot Liquid Zinc at all; I'd use the creme. > > for those who disagree; go to store; buy Zinc; take Zinc at normal dose > and then get back to me with your opinion.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 My 40lb son handles 60 mgs in divided doses daily comfortably. It is quite clear when he doesn't have enough as that makes him drool/chew on his shirt, etc. Zinc deficiency is a big issue for lots of our kids. I have taken up to 50 mgs per meal per day without too much problem. I weigh about 140 lbs. As for my son, zinc is good for me (high copper person), though I don't chew on my shirt when I am low. And I try not to drool too much :-) Anne > > > >> Hi all, > >> I have a little guy who hates taking supplements.
