In this episode, Dr. Jockers dives into the overlooked signs of zinc deficiency that even most practitioners miss. You’ll hear why symptoms like poor taste, brain fog, and brittle nails could point to a deeper mineral imbalance. Plus, he shares insights from thousands of labs reviewed by his team.
Learn how zinc fuels your immune system, thyroid, hormones, and even your mood. You’ll understand why stress, copper overload, and poor stomach acid quietly drain your zinc levels—and what to do about it.
Dr. Jockers also explains the best ways to test your zinc and the optimal levels to look for. He breaks down food sources, smart supplement strategies, and why timing your dose with meals matters more than you think.
