No white spots!
But my CMP yesterday came back again with Alkaline Phosphatase at 57. I've been taking 30 mg of Optizinc daily...wondering if it is better to take a higher dose or just assume that 4-6 weeks is not long enough to correct a deficiency?
Hi, Ema.
Good! I think zinc has to be pretty low for the white spots to develop.
You could go higher on the zinc supplementation, but if you do, it's a good idea to also take copper with a mass ratio of about 10 or 15 times as much zinc as copper. This is important for keeping them in balance, as both bind to metallothionein when absorbed by the gut, and they are competitive in that sense.
Best regards,
Rich
