zinc deficiency?
-
I had an oligoscan done and zinc is getting at the bottom range. If I was deficient, wouldn’t I be craving meat? And wouldn’t I be cold?
Right now, I feel lethargic and ill. But I’m not cold. And I have skin rashes that pop up sometime. Hair loss too.

The amount of zinc needed daily is relatively small, about 2–3 mg in adults, i.e. only 1/1000 of the total is renewed daily, in agreement with a biological half-life of zinc of about 280 days.

We have to make the difference between a lack of zinc and optimizing the functioning of the immune system.
Note: No zinc supplementation in presence of over-infected tissue (pneumonia, with white nose secretions). Zinc stimulates bacteria activity. -
