I use OptiZinc... it is really nice. No upset at all. (not like the sulfate form).

It is not expensive, and they even sell it at Whole Foods.

Very reasonable $$ for what you get back! All the acne/dandruff products have zinc in them. If you use it orally it is better and also prevents colds and infections.

Zinc is the primary treatment for healing bedsores and wounds too.
