Your Body Is Begging For Zinc

Are you noticing dry, flaky skin around your nose, white spots on your nails, brittle nails, or experiencing frequent mouth ulcers? Does it take you forever to recover from infections, and have you been dealing with acne or difficulty seeing in the dark? These could be warning signs that your body is desperately craving zinc!
In this video, we’ll explore the hidden signs of zinc deficiency and why it's essential for your overall health.

What is the proper dosage and is liquid zinc better than in pill form
Please see the suggested use for our Zinc with Magnesium, Vitamin D3 and Selenium – 30 mg of Zinc – 60 vegetable capsules- https://shop.drberg.com/products/zinc-with-magnesium-vitamin-d3-and-selenium-60-vegetable-capsules/?variant=40484092674120

Make sure to take it with copper.

Thanks doc

I Think There Is A Pairing Supplement That Pairs With Zinc For Better Absorption.

Now do a video on copper deficiency, how it can ultimately end your life, and how too much zinc can cause it.
👍
Make sure to get your supplement ratios correct!
Touch your nose and spin 3 times
How much = too much?
Zinc/copper ratio?
How does one do this tho?
@@vrilm6746yes good question. What is the zinc to copper ratio?
Typically 8 to 1 zinc/copper is considered ideal.
The problem with diet, and especially supplements (supplements are often like the Wild West of health), is that it is incredibly hard to adjust to the correct ratio.
One might have regular tests done to show the levels of each in the body, though even this is not perfect, and the zinc/copper relationship is not the only one shared by these two.
I would suggest that if you take in either one, that you do it at 8/1, but also check your diet too see if it is heavy in either one which would change the required ratio of supplemental intake.
Do ignore the peabrains who say things like what SherrylandNC said above, and try not to idol worship any health guru as no one has it 100%.
Thanks Dr Berg for sharing this video. Very helpful 👌
You’re absolutely welcome!
Thank you for sharing this!
Glad to help!
Helpful reminder. Thank you, Dr Berg 💯
Happy that you found it useful!
Thank you!! What time of day and how much should people take?? I think we’d love a video telling us when to take all of the supplements and how much to take. ❤ Thanks for helping everyone!!
Try taking 30-50mg for at least 1-2 weeks! It helped me, and the dose won’t harm you at all.
If you choose to consume long term, try 10mg a day for 1-2months.
If you have a severe infection, try 100mg for 5 days, then 30mg for 1 week. If you choose to take more zinc, consume copper, magnesium, potassium and iodine with selenium. That’s because high zinc doses deplete other nutrients.
Zinc Citrate is the best form!
Up to 40mg/day per standard, up to 50mg per Dr Berg, higher doses are toxic. I take 22mg of chelated zinc (Solgar) in the evening on a regular basis. Sometimes also zinc carnosine (Nutricost) that has 18mg of zinc in it, in the morning.

@@Drberghi doc:magnesium 400mg is safe to drink at evening and vitamin d3 in the morning or daytime..?thanks for noticing my concern..
My doctor recommended I take 100mg of Zinc when I was sick last year. But didn’t mention anything about copper.
Please be careful, 100mg is a very high dose. That is way too much zinc in most cases in general and also without the proper balance of copper it can really mess things up. I’m glad you made it through and are feeling better now though 🎉💪🏼
@ yeah I was afraid to take that much lol so i took 45 instead
Cracked heels also
What’s the recommended dosage?

Theres a number of neurological symptoms as well
Thank you for your sharing ❤❤❤
You’re absolutely welcome!
Oh wow I didn’t know that a difficulty seeing in the dark and dry skin was part of zinc I knew it was when you had acne I had a friend who had that so I suggested to him and it helped him with the dry skin that’s great I’m going try that
Come back, Zinc! Come back!
Zinc, sea salt water, and more protein and less carbs in the morning got me off acne medication.
Thank you Dr Berg 🙏 God bless you ❤❤❤
Awesome sum up.Thanks alot dr Berg ❤
