Zinc's limited effect on dizziness
This study examined the effectiveness of a nutritional supplement containing zinc, among other ingredients, in preventing the recurrence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a condition that can cause intense dizziness. We followed a diverse group of 128 patients with a history of frequent BPPV episodes. They were divided into three groups based on their vitamin D levels and received different treatment plans.

In one group, those with low vitamin D received a daily supplement containing zinc, along with other antioxidants and vitamin D3. We noticed a remarkable decrease in BPPV relapses in this group after six months compared to where they started. However, for the groups that had sufficient vitamin D and particularly those receiving zinc without vitamin D, we did not find significant benefits in reducing dizziness recurrence.

While zinc was part of a combined treatment approach, it didn’t demonstrate a standalone positive impact on dizziness. Our findings suggest that while zinc might play a role alongside other supplements, it shouldn't be solely relied upon for preventing BPPV relapses in patients with sufficient vitamin D levels.

The zinc-copper balance is excellent! I used to feel dizzy and nauseous with other brands, but since using this product, I've felt no discomfort. I will keep taking it!

Dizziness warning
I’ve been taking this zinc for ages. Initially, it caused dizziness and mild nausea when taken on an empty stomach, but after taking it with food, it was fine. It’s high-quality and includes copper, which improves skin and hair health.

If you consume this alone, it might make you feel a bit sick and dizzy. I can't continue as I'm worried. Otherwise, it's quite good.
