Yeah Bradford, I space my calcium and zinc far away from each other. I take 50mg zinc picolinate with lunch and my cal/mag/d before bed. I know that calcium carbonate isn't the best, but I've experimented with different calciums a few years back, and still say the Schiff brand calcium is my favorite. It's carbonate, but hey, it's cheap and my fingernails grow tougher taking it than any other calcium I've noticed. edit: I don't take ZMA because I think it's cheaper to just get zinc and a cal/mag supplement and take them separately. Someone was posting a study on the bodybuilding forum a while back pretty much discrediting ZMA anyway. It's the zinc that boosts your testosterone, and that's only if you were deficient in it in the first place. There's nothing really magical about a zinc, magnesium, b6 combine being taken at once.

Up your dose and give it time. If you aren't sick to your stomach try taking 2 capsules (if they are 500mg) three times a day, and move up from there. That's why I like the powder, I'd rather drink a smoothie in the morning than taking 25 pills throughout the day.

I eat foods rich in zinc, always have, but definitely notice a difference when I supplement with it, rock hard erections. Sorry to be base, but hey, that's a good thing.




Yeah, the magnesium in my calcium supplement is oxide rather than aspartate, but I am assuming it absorbs well enough, since I get sleepy after taking it. Not to mention I take an epsom salt bath once or twice a week so I think I'm covered as far as magnesium goes.

Why don't you just try it why? Instead of being a contrary douchebag? It's common knowledge zinc does that after all.... I don't see how you can possibly try to dispute that. *shrug. You are either a troll or just not that bright, heh. (hint, google is your friend, try it before hitting "post" after your asinine remarks.) edit: Unrelated to superfoods, but, on the note of this post...don't waste money on Enzyte or any of those other 'penis' pills, since zinc serves as the base for all of them, and it's incredibly cheap.

1. I take zinc picolinate, not zinc oxide, learn how to read. And I don't need to 'claim' zinc's effects on a testosterone levels and sexual health, it's been proven.

2. I eat algae not grass, and I don't stuff it into capsules I drink it mixed with juice. If you don't want to believe it makes me feel entirely different, that's your prerogative. If you don't believe in its nutritional value, all you have to do is read the label (something I've noticed you obviously don't do). If you still don't, I guess you might as well not believe that vegetables are good for you either, since those "grass capsules" are pretty much just that, just highly condensed.

3. I've tried coke, it's actually a pretty lame drug. Give me ecstacy or GHB any day over some nose-candy.
