QUESTIONS

• What is zinc? Zinc is a naturally occurring mineral and is important for growth and for the development and health of body tissues.
• Is there anything I should avoid while taking zinc? You should avoid taking this product with foods that are high in calcium or phosphorus. It can make it more difficult for your body to absorb the zinc acetate. Milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream, dried beans or peas, lentils, nuts, peanut butter, beer, soda, and hot cocoa are all types of foods that are high in calcium or phosphorus. Zinc acetate can make certain antibiotics less effective, so always make sure with your doctor if you can take zinc acetate with other medications.
