JeNewBee Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 How? I work with it everyday Consumption of zinc, either too much, the wrong type or just an intolerance on your part can cause stomach upset. Problems such as indigestion, heartburn, headaches and abdominal cramps are not uncommon. Make sure you don’t take more than the recommended dose and avoid cheap commercial formulas that not only offer low absorption rates but have higher chances to cause stomach upset. Try to stay around 40-50 mg of zinc per day to avoid stomach upsets. Taking your supplement with a small meal also helps avoiding digestive problems. If none of these tips work, try to change your zinc formula. For example if you’re taking zinc oxide you might want to try zinc picolinate instead or some other form. It’s not THAT much more expensive and they’re more bioavailable to your body, which means more of it absorbed in your body for each milligram ingested.
