I am really struggling to get both of these up comfortably in to range. My understanding is that they fight each other so i am not certain how I bring them both up. I get copper everyday in my Cost Cal Citrate and I take 300mg of zinc daily. I hate to go to more than that on the zinc but will if I need to. I hover just below to barely in range, actually for both copper and zinc.
How do the rest of you who need copper and zinc take them so it is most effective. I take my Cal Citrate 2-3 times a day (just depends some times I do 3, 2, 3 other times it is 4 in morning and 4 at night. I take the CC seperate from everything else. The zinc I do 3 in morning and 3 at night, usually an hour to two hours after the CC. Sometimes if I forget or know I am going out I will take my zinc with my multi, A, D, E and K.
Just trying to figure out how to get these up.
FYI - My RBC came up a tad but is still a little below range, Platelets dropped out of range, H & H both came up and I am point below range on both (was 3 points hemo and 10 points hematocrit).
