Zinc deficiency: Only indication for zinc suppliment is low blood level of zinc, otherwise is un-necessary and is quite rare in men. Symptoms would be: low zinc levels include hair loss, reduced alertness, sense of taste or smell. Good diet, incuding red meat or poultry. Baked beans, peas or nuts if you are vegetarian. Beware interference with any necessary medications like antibiotics. Most peoplle don't need it
