Product ID: 1411
Vegetarian: Yes
Quantity: 60 Tablets
Suggested Dosage: 1 tablet every 2 hours
Contraindications:
High doses of zinc can interfere with immune function. Shils and Young report the level of zinc that interferes with copper absorption (associated with copper deficiency and anemia) is a long-term, chronic ingestion of 150 mg/day (Shils M and Young V. eds. Modern Nutrition in Health and Disease. 1988 7th ed. Lea and Febiger, Philadelphia, Pa.). Michael Murray advises against a daily intake greater than 150 mg for more than a week, but stresses that zinc supplementation, particularly lozenges, can effectively enhance the immune system.
