RE: 3 year old with back hair !?!

[Guest guest]

Zinc, when we were supplementing zinc at higher levels we got hair, although not

black on her legs. Particularly zinc monomethione or OptiZinc can do this. I

think dr Jmc has said it.

Zinc can raise testosterone levels. A classic..... cure one problem, get

another that we have so frequently run into. We quit using Optizinc and lowered

the dosage, and this went away.

[ ] 3 year old with back hair !?!

My preschool aged son has developed dark hair on his back and his legs

during the past 2 months. He isn't showing other signs of precocious

puberty.

I thought maybe the taurine we were using was causing the hair because

taurine is being studied as a hair-growth supplement. But I stopped

the taurine 2 weeks ago and the hair is worse than before.

Any ideas about where this might be coming from? A supplement?

Metals? His hair test is on Wednesday.

Thanks,

Thank you , I think you are probably right. I have been

giving my son lots of zinc as per Dr. JMc's book. He weighs 30lbs

and I have been giving him 20 to 30mg daily of the Biomax zinc from

Kirkman. I will lower the dosage.

Thanks again,

Leigh Anne
