Re: Depends on you...

If I'm reading that properly then, you are getting about 110 mg of zinc per day just from supplements -- definitely a bit high. Zinc is a necessary metal, but it's also a toxic one. I personally wouldn't exceed about 50 mg per day on average, and that would the the total from all sources (nuts, supplements, and so on). See what happens at that level.

SHBG is sex hormone binding globulin. It's a compound that locks up the sex hormones as they pass through the blood. When they're bound, they're inactive. Tweet
