I have had a terrible time sleeping the last two nights, and it had me really flustered because my sleep, generally, has been pretty amazing for the last six months (but by no means perfect). Some other products made by haidut had also increased my quality of sleep, but I also had this same kind of immediate sleep maintenance insomnia a few days prior to taking these products. I kept trying my usual tricks—ice cream, salt, niacinamide—nothing worked. But then I realized I hadn't taken zinc in a very long time. Within about five minutes of taking 30mg of zinc, I felt my body warm up, and was asleep within probably twenty minutes.
So I get on RPF today to read about zinc and come across this post, by me, in 2013, and wonder how I keep forgetting to take zinc, when it so clearly helps my own symptoms to a great extent? Zinc Neutralizes PUFAs (polyunsaturated Fats) In Vivo, Is Necessary For Weight Loss And Liver Lipid
I also suspect that some of these new products from @haidut would probably require some extra of the raw materials the body uses to synthesize the healthful hormones?
But a more serious inquiry I have is what reason I would apparently not be getting enough zinc through my diet, which consists of a great quantity of diverse calories, when I've experienced such a profound increase in my health generally. I should be getting enough zinc but apparently I need to supplement extra. Any insight why I would still be needing to supplement?
