[Marty Champions]

greater than 150 mg is said to be pushing it

[BodyConnoisseur]

[spiro]

I take 50 mgs before bed along with trt. I think it helps with estrogen a bit.

Great anti oxidant and immune builder makes me never get a cold. But only at megadose

Supposedly good for blood pressure in higher dosages.

Zinc is metal, not a vitamin

I take 30-60mg of L-OptiZinc each day

what makes you think that? you're probably not. It's in your head.

[falco]

I use a ZMA suplement. Its zinc, magnesium and B6. I sleep like a baby and always wake up with a boner.

[Sizwe]

I take 15mg chelated zinc a day, probably not a smart thing to push up too much.
Think of how a human would live in the wild naturally, we probably need a lot less vitamins than health freaks think, taking that we don't eat mostly junk.

when i workout intense im physically lazy the rest of the day

its hard to get an edge

when i used to eat 10 chicken breasts a day i had double workout energy but i dont see the point taking animal life for 1 stupid day of exercise!

Hype.  All you need to do (with any/all nutrients) is to consume enough to avoid a deficiency.  If you are not deficient, taking a lot of it will do nothing for you.

I've heard it has slightly viagra like properties for the blood flow.

[Spike]

I take emergen-Z

They sell it at Walmart

[Rambone]

No, but I took 3-4 Beverly int'l liver tablets per meal for a few months and had bloodwork done and my iron levels were way too high. Had to quit those things. #hemeiron

It's idiotic to take single micro-nutrients at high doses like that. Who takes 30 mg+ zinc/day is probably running into an iron or copper deficiency, as they're competing for the same enzymes in your body.

The human body is a pretty sophisticated system, with every single pill you pop you're interfering the balance of your body.

You're lecturing a man that eats dirt. Literally.
