I’m a woman who’s been taking zinc on and off since I was 19. I’m in my 30s now. I started taking it to control my cystic acne and help them heal with minimal scarring. The side-effect I got is very thick lustrous hair and my eyelashes are long. I take 25mg-30mg zinc a day with vitamin C (sodium ascorbate) on an empty stomach. I started supplementing on copper too (just not at the same time). When I go off zinc supplements for more than a month, my adult acne returns (the painful cystic variety). I still get the occasional acne breakout even on zinc, but just one or two small ones that heal quickly. I love my zinc supplements, I’ve never had to take antibiotics or use any harsh skin treatments for my acne.

💡 Recommended upper tolerance for zinc is around 40 mg/day for adults, but circumstances like autoimmune diseases may require more. 💡 Absorption factors include gut inflammation, stress, high-carb diets, phytic acid, and estrogen dominance (birth control, HRT). 💡 Maintaining a balanced zinc-to-copper ratio (around 10:1) can help prevent adverse effects from high zinc intake. 💡 Zinc deficiency is common; adding zinc-rich foods and managing absorption barriers can contribute to healthier hair.

Hi Dr. Berg! First of all, I wanted to thank you for your wonderful videos and your effort! I'm grateful more than I can express with words, because thanks to you has my quality of life had greatly improved, and that of my mother too. My mother is around 70 years old and she suffers from high blood pressure and other symptoms. She'd had no energy and had to take large doses of medication. Thanks to your advice she had been able to reduce her medication, has so much more energy and was able to supplement some meds with alternative options! Her blood pressure is still a problem, though it's her life long battle and even the current success is a major thing to her! As for me, I feel so much better since I follow your advice! I also have some questions / suggestions for future videos (if I may be so bold, lol). And excuse me kindly for any grammar mistakes, English is not my first language. 1. I'd really fascinated with the concept of fasting. I do omad but I'd really love to do long term fasts. Though I'd managed about 75 hours at most. I start to feel dizzy and weak. I do the sodium, electrolytes, potassium and fish oil as well as MCT oil, but I just can't go for longer than that. One explanation that comes to mind is my low blood pressure. When I fast it sinks lower and that is why I feel week. Is that possible? I drink more coffee than usual but it still doesn't help that much.:-( 2. Another thing that bothers me are night shifts. I'm used to the pattern of doing 2x 12 hours day shifts followed by the same number of night shifts and then time off. That way, I do cca 7x 12 hours day shifts and 7x 12 hour night shifts per month. Is it really bad? How can I minimize the risks? What are the risks exactly? I'm really struggling with that. This pattern of work suits me but I don't want to damage my body. I would love a video adressing all those points from you! I've watched your videos concerning night shifts, but I still feel that I need more info. :-) Thank you so much, Dr. Berg! You are wonderful person.

I personally don’t use sunscreen lotions. There is a reason why i don’t. My skin needs to be free of toxic chemicals particularly aluminum in lotions. Usually i will grab a Lebanese cucumber as an in between snack. I might eat 1-2 cucumbers a day plus with main meals. Lots of virgin olive oil each day and chickpeas and lentils.

For better absorption and delivery, you can make a LYPOSOM by mixing Sunflower lasathin or coconut oil in worm water combined with copper, zinc, and glycerin. The fat will protect the minerals, and the glycerin will help prevent the minerals from leaking out of the fat cells. this will allow for a much smaller dose because instead of a 30% absorption, it will be closer to 80%.

Thanks, Dr. Berg for the insight.

Taking vitamin D in isolation, especially high doses will increase calcium, lower potassium & increase Magnesium burn rate. You would need more magnesium, potassium, and possibly sodium to keep calcium from precipitating into soft tissue like the scalp. Vitamin K2 will further assist Ca utilization to make sure it goes where it's supposed to. Too much zinc can definitely lower copper which will can also contribute to scalp/hair issues. Difficult to know what's going on though without a properly interpreted HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis). The one many practitioners use when attempting to balance patients minerals is TEI Labs

@@joanneclark8256 Most doctors won't, and the ones that do likely dont know how to properly interpret them because levels are often not taken at face value. For instance, ones heavy metal load may look low, but if the Na/K ratio is too low it's likely because the person lacks the cellular energy to expel the metal from intracellular or enzyme lock-up so it wouldnt show. However, when given the correct minerals/supplements to raise the Na/K then you start seeing those metals finally come out which registers as a temporary "increase" on a subsequent test. That's just one example. TEI is the only one I recommend because they dont mess with the hair sample prior to running through a mass spectrometer, so the readings are more accurate

The fine doctor doesn't talk about it but there is a thunderous difference between the amount of zinc in pure zinc ("elemental") and the zinc you probably see on the shelf, whose fine print commonly explains is zinc gluconate or sulfate. Those are diluted. Mainstream sources say the upper limit is 40 but that is for elemental zinc. Gluconate and sulfate recommended limits and RDAs are several times higher. 200 mg gluconate might be fine and safely tolerable. 200 mg elemental is in my opinion an invitation for a duodenal ulcer.

I'm curious what Dr. Berg and everyone in the comments think about the supposed link between zinc and prostate cancer. There was apparently a study that points to a correlation between high dose zinc and prostate cancer. This concerns me because I've been taking a large dose of zinc (with copper) to alleviate my cystic acne. I have noticed that taking 50mg of zinc a day cleared up my acne, improved my mood, and gave me tons of energy, but I worry about side effects.

I’m a 33 year old man and I started noticing my hair on my head thinning my face hair was fine my beard looked great my body hair also fine just my head I was balding. Doc took my blood and it came back that I was low on Zinc. Doc told me to just buy some Zinc supplements and go from there so I bought the 50mg Zinc supplements I have been taking 1 a day mixing in a good diet. With in 2 and half months my hair started growing back so it dose work but always see your doctor first because hair loss could be more then just Zinc deficiency

Hello Dr. Berg! I wanted to start by thanking you for all the information and knowledge you share. I am a 39 year old woman (with no medical issues) who just had her second baby 3 months ago. I am currently breastfeeding and have noticed that I am losing A LOT of hair (especially on one side of my head). I recently found a zinc supplement containing the following ingredients: Zinc (as Zinc Bisglycinate and Zinc Monomethionine [OptiZinc®]): 22mg Selenium (as SelenoExcell® High Selenium Yeast): 100mgc Copper (as Copper Gluconate): 2mg and ACTIValoe® Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbandensis) Gel QM Powder 200x: 150mg -- Do you think the dosages are good for a breastfeeding mom? Thank you

Doctor Berg, you should set up an ai app that runs through an extensive questionnaire (covering many personal idiosyncrasies) so that every person can zero in on what specific dosages of various supplements would be most helpful. I sometimes find it very difficult to juggle all of the interactions between different foods, minerals and vitamins.

Question and Suggestion: Hello Dr. Berg. Remember, you can take 150-400 mg of zinc gluconate per day. The bottle I have is 50 mg zinc gluconate. It says take 1 per day, but the body can take up to 400 mg of zinc gluconate. There are several different forms of zinc you can find or get so be very careful what type it is and read about it. Zinc oxide is another, but this you would probably stay under 100 mg per day at maximum. The bottle can be misleading because it says take 1 per day, but with gluconate its not enough. Correct me if I'm wrong but I have read this somewhere. Hope this helps someone out. By the way, I believe zinc has helped me regrow some receded hair in the front and sides area but I still have a really full head of hair regardless. I will now try copper and see what happens. I think it receded not only from being unhealthy for years in my early 20's but also from wearing a hockey helmet so often and the sweat and rubbing. Because the hairline is sort of where the helmet was rubbing. LOL!
