Zinc and Hypertension

[Poppy]

Darn my wife takes elderberry too.

I’ve had the flu blown diagnosed flu not too many years ago. Sickest I’ve ever been. Boooooo!

Zinc, D3 and Vit c. Can’t hurt!

 

[NeuroRN]

That’s right! Can’t forget d3!

 

[Poppy]

D3… mmmmmm.

I gotta check and see if I’m getting that.

 

[NeuroRN]

You get plenty from the sun probably. Us who live on the dark side of the sun absolutely must supplement.

 

[Poppy]

Yeah i was thinking that. Yard work and chores around here keeps me in the vitamin d.

 

[John]

Thanks @JLee.

 

[John]

Me to @Bigmurph and my doc hasn’t said shit a out zinc

 

[Kad1]

They usually don’t

 

[Kad1]

Actually most in the entire northern continent don’t get enough. There were a few studies that showed I’ll see if I can find

 

[Bigmurph6]

Is there a reason besides they want you on meds

 

[NeuroRN]

Most genuinely don’t know. So most of the way we know medicine, the education, the importance of MD, their autonomy, was actually started by the rockafeller family and they ran smear ads and on natural remedies and homeopathic medicine.

Then medical school allowed pharma companies to donate billions of dollars to their schools and they drove them to teach scripts for everything.

We’re just now seeing a return to even the study of natural remedies for things as common as hypertension.

Most doctors wouldn’t say zinc Bc they have never been taught a single thing about it.

 

[Poppy]

Just like homemade chicken noodle soup has extreme medicinal qualities

 

[Bigmurph6]

So sad that I honestly know more than most doctors I see about my mental health and some medical issues and pharmaceutical no doctor can compete I read the entire pill book every year. I stay on top of whats available and being approved I should have been a lawyer doctor pharmacist all would have been really nice.
I threw it all out the window frustrating dealing with doctors and that fact

 

[Kad1]

Reasons for taking natural Supps? Most are deficient in zinc and magnesium because our food supply is deficient. They help a multitude of systems in the body from hormone regulation to immune support. There are very few Supps I recommend.,
D3, zinc, mag, fish oil, C, for general health

 

[Bigmurph6]

Makes sense but I believe I take in alot of those but not all zinc is something I need to look into thanks

 

[Kad1]

You can have levels checked also. Lo zinc can affect test levels as well

 

[Bigmurph6]

I have never had a vitamin deficiency on blood work I have been checked because of gear blood work being all over the place doc orders more usually
