Thought you'd find this interesting @Orion :

"
Zinc, the gentle strength mineral and a very important spiritual development mineral today. It is a male mineral, so called because it is more essential for men than for women in some ways, although it is certainly essential for women as well. it is required for hundreds of enzymes in the human body. These include the sense of taste and smell, vision, growth, sexual development, digestive enzyme production, male potency, prostate gland health, blood sugar regulation and processing of alcohol.
Zinc is very important for the joints, the skin, wound healing, and to prevent birth defects. Zinc helps prevent diabetes, acne, epilepsy and childhood hyperactivity, and helps detoxify heavy metals. Adequate zinc has a calming effect and is needed to regenerate all body tissues.
Refined food is very low in zinc. According to Dr. Carl Pfeiffer, MD, PhD, the entire human population is borderline zinc deficient. There are very few excellent sources of zinc today. Among the best are red meats, organ meats and some seafood that I do not recommend because it is too high in toxic metals. Other sources that are not quite as good are poultry such as chicken and turkey, eggs, wheat, oatmeal, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, wheat germ and colostrum. Wheat products are not recommended as wheat has become too hybridized and is a highly inflammatory and irritating food for most people today.
Vegetarians run a high risk of zinc deficiency because they avoid red meats, in most cases. Low zinc, especially in vegetarians, tends to cause a worsening of copper toxicity. Zinc supplements are essential for everyone today, although the supplements are not as good as eating high-zinc foods, generally."

MINERALS FOR LIFE

Dr Wilson has some whacky stuff about spirituality etc but it seems most of his mineral stuff is from dr Eck at ARL.

Seriously wishing I had a time machine, and I could just go back to when I was 14 with horrible acne and get my hair tested. I bet I was super low in zinc, because I probably masturbated too much and had a terrible terrible diet.

I've been supping zinc a lot now, maybe 90mg a day, and feeling really good. I can't wait to retest my hair. But i'm going to sample it at the end of March so I can check that my protocol has worked properly.

When you get that time machine ready let me know :) around 14 my eyesite went and acne exploded, was probably masturbating like 14 times a day...

Zinc seems to be one mineral that doesn't cause me any negative effects when supplementing with it.

Ordered my next hairtest, will be sending in a sample this coming week, very curious where my levels are now.

So it says here that accutane can downregulate t3 receptors. I guess this is how it slows the metabolism and gets rid of oily stuff. potassium is retained to fight this. then you get off of it. and then your receptors go up and potassium is also high. And you get super high metabolism.

Update; So I have been doing protein/lots egg whites/aminos with meals along with 6grams HCl for each meal and sipping electrolytes KCl/MgCl2(1000mg/100mg) throughout the day. Been taking small amounts of extra Zn, SE, Mo and Mn along with 1tsp brewers yeast

Getting really good positive results with this, and its only been about 6 days. So will continue

I have been taking individual aminos to average/match the below amounts:

Interesting thoughts on copper and zinc, although pretty esoteric
