Nutrient Deficiencies
So common, yet just pumping yourself full of supplements, reaching for higher and higher doses isn’t the best way to address the issue.
Higher doses can actually have the opposite effect and reduce the amount absorbed- Hello regulation!! I have seen this scenario in clinic this week with a client who was taking high doses of zinc for a very long time (which I see a lot post COVID) but it would never budge on her bloods. Dropping down the dose and changing some other things has seen it finally improve.
So if you’re struggling with deficiencies, can’t quite fix that low iron, improve that B12 or still getting muscle cramps even with the increased magnesium you’re taking, it may be time to look a little deeper.
