A member asked:
If one were to supplement with zinc picolinate tablets; how long would one do that for and for how many weeks? many thanks
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: This depends on many factors- how deficient is the person supplementing, how much zinc are they getting from their diet, how much zinc they are taking. Typically people take 15 mg/day long-term (for years) but some people need more. Why is one supplementing?
