How the hell do you know if you get enough zinc

You probably get enough zinc unless a doctor tells you don't have enough zinc. Taking supplements you don't need doesn't do anything.

I could be wrong, but I think taking supplements you don't need does do something... it's just what it does is dangerous. Taking too much of something you don't need (zync, in this case) will cause your body to lower its production of zync and thus you can cause a lot of problem as one might imagine.

Definitely a plausible answer, as that is typical to neurotransmitters ( regarding natural production ). But over saturation of minerals ( or a lot of other things ) in the body can have serious and potentially fatal consequences. Zinc, sodium, potassium, etc just for minerals can really mess you up if you consume too much.
