Hi (especially Mrs. D).

I went on the Internet to see exactly what the recommended dosage of Zinc should be and all I read was "no more than 25 mgs a day".

Well, Optizinc is 30 and it also has copper.

Then I read one should not take Zinc every day.

But!!! I also read that if one is coming down with a cold, one should take zinc and C.

so what the heck is one supposed to do.

Do I take one Optizinc every day? or do I just take it until my cold is over (It's at the end).

I'm really confused. And you mentioned that my sprouts deplete my body of Zinc (I THINK that's what you said, right?) How do sprouts deplete any zinc from the body?. I know that blood pressure meds do this, but SPROUTS??? lol

Thanks much

Melody
