Guest guest Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 We are to give our daughter zinc picolinate because of severe zinc deficiency. The brands I have been able to find have copper in them. Does anyone have a brand they like without the copper. It needs to be gf/cf. She is also allergic to soy, rice, eggs, and nuts. Thank you for any direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 We have used zinc picolinate by Swanson Health Products and by Thorne Research. We also like zinc mono-methionine by Vitamin Research Products. These are all hypoallergenic (my son is also highly allergic) and do not contain copper. > > We are to give our daughter zinc picolinate because of severe zinc deficiency.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Hi, We use Pic-mins trace minerals by Thorne - you can't order directly from them anymore so we have our local " wellness center " (supplement shop) order it and we go in and pick it up.

Our DAN told us that the calcium makes it easy on the stomach, he also told us that zinc picolonate is the most well tolerated form of zinc. We have found that zinc is very hard to supplement but it is very important to do it. Good luck, Leigh dhdudley@... wrote: We are to give our daughter zinc picolinate because of severe zinc deficiency. The brands I have been able to find have copper in them.
