    zinc and increased test?

    Iv been experimenting with some zinc, preferably 60 mg of it each day upon waking. Recently I received a blood test for my hormonal profile due to feeling fatigued, overtraining, lack of sleep, and just losing my overall balance of well being, My test came back at 643 first thing in the morning, Is this a normal reading? thanks.

    without a reference range that number is pointless, but zinc will not increase test unless you are deficient in it. be careful you can OD on zinc. 60mg seems pretty high

    643 is about where a 21 year old should be.

    Also, zinc does not increase test.
