SCS - Does BioShield MD have too much Zinc?

Zinc is a mineral that doesn't take a large amount to be efficient. Minerals require small amounts because accumulation may occur in high doses of several minerals. Zinc’s recommended intake is 8-9 mg, just depending on the person.

BioShield MD contains 5.5mg of Zinc for two capsules, not just one. So, this means, you are only getting the 5.5 mg of zinc while taking both capsules, not 11 mg (which would be high). You'd intake about 2.75 mg of zinc if you were to take just one capsule daily. 

So no, BioShield MD does not contain too much zinc!
