Zinc challenge liquid allows you to easily test your body’s zinc levels, as well as provide you with supplemental zinc! Zinc is one of this important trace mineral in your body critical for immune function, building new tissues, wound healing, leaky gut, digestion, insulin sensitivity, the functioning of over 200 enzymes, skin health, and having a healthy pregnancy.
Suggested dose: If your zinc levels are low as dictated by taste reaction (below), take 1 or more Tablespoons per day until you notice a change in taste.
How to find out if your zinc levels are low To perform the test, put about 2 Tablespoons of zinc status liquid into a cup and then into your mouth. Hold it in your mouth for up to 30 seconds to see if a definite taste develops, and then swallow. Depending on the time it took to notice a taste or the strength of the taste, the responses are classified as follows:
1. No specific taste or other sensation is noticed. 2. No immediate taste is noticed, but after a few seconds a slight taste variously described as "dry," "mineral," "furry," or "sweet," develops. 3. A definite, though not strongly unpleasant, taste is noticed almost immediately and tends to intensify over time. 4. A strong and unpleasant taste is noted almost immediately.
A reaction in category 1 or 2 suggests a zinc deficiency and a need for zinc supplementation. A reaction of 3 or 4 indicates the patient has adequate zinc levels.
Those who scored 1 or 2 should take Zinc Liquid daily as a supplement (1-2 Tbsp per day) until a strong and immediate taste develops. Keep retesting zinc levels weekly to keep zinc levels optimal.
