My zinc tablets are 15mg and called High Strength. Could you perhaps try half of one of yours a day and see how you get on. I stopped mine recently as I'd been getting mild headaches. However, I have pumpkin seeds in my morning muesli, they are rich in zinc and other vitamins.
I take the same amount as jean at the moment 15mg with 1 mg copper (Jarrow brand ) weakness and tiredness is a sign of copper deficiency which can be caused by zinc supplementation.
I alternate the Jarrow brand with a 10mg ( Natures Plus )
I took zinc for a while and was very sick with it. When I stopped taking them, the sickness stopped. Good idea of Jean’s to take pumpkin seeds.
8 mg is the recommended daily allowance for zinc in women.
