I give it at night away from most of his other minerals. I have heard that liquid zinc is particularly good to use as it has no taste as long as you are deficient and when you reach sufficient body stores it begans to have a terrible metal taste. We have always used capsules. I was also told not to use zinc citrate, but zinc pincolinate, we have also used zinc carbonate with good success. > > How much zinc do you use and what brand?
