Zinc supplement causes fever/crash
-
I found out recently that one of the supplements I take at midday was causing me to get an extreme crash in energy for about 30 minutes after, facial flushing and overall feeling extremely hot, irritable and sleepy. I narrowed it down to zinc, which I take 30-40mg of (bisglycinate). I take 3mg copper bisglycinate aswell to keep ratios good.
Has anyone else had this issue?

@mavuue I had that with zinc supplements, but not zinc-rich foods. I haven't taken a zinc supplement in years because the type and dosage didn't seem to matter as far as the negative effects.
