Sweetpea.... a bit off topic ..... but thought I would mention that copper can inhibit zinc absorption, and vice versa... too much zinc can prevent copper absorption. Also the reason why having http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1245202/Copper-pipes-cause-Alzheimers-heart-disease-people-50.html - copper water pipes is not healthy in the home... it causes a copper build up A zinc deficiency can case symptoms of hair loss, skin lesions, impaired sexual function and infertility and a range of other things. So maybe get hubby to take zinc supplements or have a break from wearing the bracelet sometimes. http://www.herbs2000.com/minerals/zinc.htm - Zinc Gosh... i hope i haven't scared you too much with this |
