Zinc treatment for angina pectoris
High-dose zinc to terminate angina pectoris: a review and hypothesis for action by ICAM inhibition.
Directly addresses zinc treatment
We delved into an intriguing question: Can high doses of zinc help relieve chest pain caused by angina pectoris? Our research reviewed studies that highlight how zinc may play a role in managing this condition. Angina pectoris often results from arteriosclerosis, where the arteries become narrowed due to cholesterol buildup and other factors.

We discovered that patients with severe atherosclerosis showed promising improvements when treated with high-dose zinc. Specifically, a treatment regimen involved raising serum zinc levels significantly, resulting in symptom relief for many individuals. In one notable case, 12 out of 16 patients experienced measurable benefits, including one patient who also suffered from Raynaud's disease.

Furthermore, our analysis noted that long-term exposure to zinc in the environment correlated with reduced incidence of angina and ischemic events during exercise. Zinc appears to possess antioxidant properties, which may protect against the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, a key player in artery damage. By blocking certain inflammatory factors and promoting better circulation, zinc might enhance heart function and alleviate chest pain.

Based on these findings, we propose that zinc treatment should be considered a fundamental option in both prevention and therapy for atherosclerosis-related chest pain. This could lead to a renewed focus on restoring a healthier cardiac function among those affected by these conditions.

Eliminated stomach pain
I purchased this for a family member who suffers from stomach pain when hungry. Since beginning the treatment, I've not experienced any stomach pain while feeling hungry, so I will continue with it. At present, I opt for a slightly cheaper brand from iHerb, but this manufacturer's product was also satisfactory.

To maintain my health during cold season, I take zinc for prevention, and I’ve experienced less pain as a result.

Consulting is necessary
I've mentioned the type of zinc I purchased, which isn't suitable for me; it induces stomach pain when consumed. It can be harsh at times but has helped stop my hair from falling out. I only take it occasionally to offset my poor diet and intend to consult a doctor before re-purchasing. Best of health to you.

Improved overall condition
Taking 50mg of zinc at once is beneficial. I eliminated peeling lips and tongue pain thanks to it. I was deficient in zinc, and 50mg suited me well. Consider individual differences when dosing. It’s useful for managing physical health, including cold prevention.

Requires food intake
The box is sizeable, yet it induces nausea if taken on an empty stomach and results in stomach pain. It should be ingested with food or immediately following a meal to avoid discomfort.
