Zinc Questions Answered
from Holistic Psychiatry Podcast · host Courtney Snyder MD

Here I answer:* Why are we low in zinc?* Is hair analysis or nutrient panels as useful a plasma zinc?* Where can we find the optimal ranges for zinc and copper?* What foods have zinc?* Can’t we just get it from food?* If it can lower already low zinc, why can’t we just take copper with the zinc?* Why is zinc important for preventing or recovering from COVID?If you have a questions or comments about zinc, pyrroles or anything else, please comment here or email me at [email protected].
