I was at the health food store yesterday and decided to buy some zinc supplements for obvious reasons.

The bottle says to take one per day - my question is - is there a limit? can you ever take too much zinc?

Hmmm, I wouldn't say that you can overdose on Zinc, but then again I'm not sure PMike, so I would suggest that you go with the recommended dose, just to make sure. I doubt that if you take double the dose, your gonna get double the load!!

Thats alright PMike, then again, throw my idea out the window and take 10 tablets in one go, and then let us know the results!!

I can just imagine your review of your Zinc indulgence...

" Well, having taken Squids idea to take 10 Zinc tablets, I thought yeah what the hell!! Minutes later I got this strange sensation eminatting from my testicles and I can see that they were starting to go red and that they were also starting to swell. After 10 minutes they had swollen to the size of a small californian grapefruit, and then it all went very strange.......and I went into an almost dream like state.............WOOOSSHH!!! My whole body erupted into a Zinc enduced frenzy!! My cock gushing forth squirt after squirt of zinc flavoured man mayo!!!! Shall I take Zinc again??? you betcha!! Peter North, Eat your heart out!!"

Hahha, sorry about that little outburst!!

Symptoms of zinc overdose:

metallic taste
reduced urine output, bloody urine
shock, collapse, convulsions
fever, vomiting
low blood pressure
yellow skin and eyes
rash

But the good news is, you won't have testicles the size of grapefruits.

If not, indeed, the requirements of performing in one.

Seriously, though, too much zinc is BAD for you.

I'll ask the Mr. Obvious question, but what are the obvious reasons to take zinc? Last time I checked, it was only good for protecting againts retinal degereration.

Mike, from what I know, taking a zinc supplement can increase your load, but you might be better off not taking it on a regular basis. Not only are there the bad side effects listed above if you go way overboard, but you might also dilute the affect you're looking for if you take the pill(s) everyday. Eventually your body will adjust to it and your load will return to normal. Instead, maybe you should try taking a couple of tablets the night or morning before you anticipate needing to supply such a load, and see if that works for you, rather than using it on a constant basis. And drink lots of water!

hate to break it to you, but zinc studies (and vitamin E, and a lot of other 'performance enhancers' were only studied in models of deficiency. If you elminate zinc from the diet, fertility goes down. In rats, at least. Give it back to them, and they go at it like rabbits, but mostly to make up for lost time. (Mixing my rodent metaphors, I know). I imagine it will work at least as well as the herbal breast enhancers, though.

Anyway. Don't take too much.

I'd be careful with taking too much zinc. Chronic large doses may depress the immune system or cause hypochromic anemia as a result of copper deficiency due to the interference of copper metabolism. I read elsewhere that too much zinc in males was linked to something bad, however, I don't remember what exactly.

I have read that you should not exceed 80mg daily of zinc in supplemental form. However, GNC offers 100mg tablets. So you may want to treat 100mgs as the max and avoid taking them for extended periods of time. You may want to take them only five or six days a week. I don't think even more than 100mgs would harm you in one day, but if you did it every day it might catch up with you negatively. Then again, I am not a professional.

I've begun taking zinc supplements called AZINC that adds up to 9 vitamins & 11 minerals in a capsule to be taken twice a day on the course of one month. Just finished my 2nd week & my sperm count has already bettered. Just yesterday i'd say I've had 3 more contractions than usual and it even shot out (i'm one of these candle-dripping cummers usually) . No Peter North though, but a welcome enhancement...
the only downside is that excess alcohol is an excipient (more than 4 glasses of wine & i've noticed your zinc goes down the drain, i swear, u can smell it), and your cum gets a metallic flavour (i'm used to swallowing it back when i come, now it's just a little rancid, but still ok). I also smoke a lot (30 cigs a day) and I've read nicotine can lessen the impact, so maybe you'll even get a better reward out of it if u're a non-smoker.
but, yeah, it works...

i should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky

Vodka Tonic, so where can I find out more and buy this AZINC? I'll try it. I'll take one for the team if that is what I have to do....of course, since I would be taking one for the team it would be nice to have a chearleader present.

Come to France !!! Well, Endorphin, I'm sure there must be a similar product in the US that's also sold over the counter. Just for details, mine contains betacaroten, vitamins E, B1, B2, B6, B12, H, PP, calcium, phosphate, copper, magnesium, sodium and of course zinc supplements in one capsule. Ask your nice pharmacologist for a good product over the counter, and don't go for more than 15$!
Incidentally, it also fights doziness & throat infections ! It's also good for the hair & the skin.

i should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky

https://www.adultdvdtalk.com/forum/topic.dlt/topic_id=16808/forum_id=6/cat_id=3/16808.htm

300mg

To quote a few tidbits:
...
over 300mg can have toxic effects, when the overdose of zinc blocks normal absorption of other minerals (copper)...
...
Most overdoses are at the whopping 300mg level - which should not be a problem for most people unless you pop about 6 zinc tablets in addition to your daily diet.
...
Know your vitamins:
http://www.drlam.com/supplements/Supplementfacts.html

And don't trust GNC's crap, it's marked up and they try their crap on you without knowing the harmful side effects... The only decent products they have are ZMA (zinc magnesium aspartate, which contains enough zinc to keep you healthy and has actually led to a good nights sleep for me) and their soy protein.

so i've been taking the zinc, not daily, but more on random days, and i find that the only thing it does is makes my stomach hurt...

i take one in the morning with breakfast and for about 3 hours i feel nauseous - so i've stopped....

pretty sure that's not normal

Mike,

Just take a good quality multi-vitamin in the morning and you should be fine, it'll get you all the zinc and nutrients you need... And if you exercise/weight train try ZMA at night for additional zinc and in some cases and sometimes improved sleep.

On a side note... Has anybody purchased that VolumeZ suppliment that Peter North is marketing in his video products? I'm highly skeptical but curious as to the supplement facts (ingredients).

Mike-I use zinc lozenges, but to ward off colds. Typically each lozenge is 23mg of zinc, plus vitamin c & echinacea. I've seen some labels state that you should not take any citrus drinks after taking the lozenge (I think for 1 hour). Maybe the OJ is a problem.
