In the Age of Covid we find ourselves taking more and different dietary supplements than ever before. It's hard to know how effective this zinc supplement is, so we proceed as an article of faith. Better to hope and try than to ignore risk
Read More...So good to find Zinc at a lower dose. I could only find 50mg tablets locally and had to cut them in quarters to get the right dose. Cutting them made a powdery mess. It would be great if some reputable company had 12mg to 15mg size so I wouldn't have to cut them at all
Read More...They are fine - But other's are 50 - 100 - 150 mg & more ... Zinc is / can be toxic over 100 m
Read More...So if you want a Zinc pill that is just Zinc, and economical, this is a good pill for you! I take a Daily vitamin pill with 22, plus 1/2 of this 30 mg pill, so that gives me 37mg a day, it is recommended at least 25 mg for a daily dose
Read More...These white Zinc tablets contain 30mg of Zinc from zinc glutonate and there is no weird taste or aftertaste at all. No side effects after taking them for 2 weeks, and I feel healthy and more energized when taking these along with vitamin D. The packaging says to not take these for longer than 10 weeks in a row but 300 tablets are included and serving size is 1. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with the other 230 tablets once my 10 weeks are up but I imagine the warning is to protect themselves legally. I have friends and family members who have taken zinc for years and they are perfectly healthy and swear by it. According to medical date, adverse effects of long-term high-dose zinc use include suppressed immunity, decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, anemia, copper deficiency, and possible genitourinary complications. Zinc is likely safe when taking under 40mg daily. I would recommend speaking to your doctor after taking zinc for 10 weeks and seeing if all your levels are normal, especially cholesterol. This is my first time using Solimo (Amazon Brand) Zinc and I'm happy with it. No artificial flavors or colors, and I've had absolutely no issues taking these tablets at all
Read More...This is a completely irresponsible product. As the capsule is well above the daily value, even in the label it states is more than double what it should be... And believe me, that is Not something good. Women should intake only 8mg per day while men's intake should be around 11mg. This is WAY MORE than that. I started taking these and all was well, zinc is good for you. But within the week it started to go south really quick. It started with mild nausea, next day heavy nausea and vomit and then of course I reviewed zinc consumption details and found my symptoms were that of excess zinc consumption: "Signs of too much zinc include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, stomach cramps, diarrhea, and headaches. When people take too much zinc for a long time, they sometimes have problems such as low copper levels, lower immunity, and low levels of HDL cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol)." The whole concept of this product and every zinc supplement that is above 8 or 11 g per capsule is flawed and dangerous. Just beware it is uncomfortable and not healthy. Additionally, I guess you can cut them but that is not only more work but it can also be wrongly calculated
