> No contradiction. There is an inverse relation between zinc (Zn) intake and plasma prolactin in men and nonpregnant women. Prolactin opposes dopamine. By decreasing prolactin, dopamine is encouraged. I take zinc monomethionine. One of my favorite supplements. Look up some of the studies showing zinc supplements increasing the effectiveness of medication in ADHD kids.
Thanks cumulative, sorry I misunderstood.
Do you think zinc elevates dopamine too much?. What I need is more serotonin and it seems they compete.
Do you use zinc monomethionine for any special reason e.g. more bioavailable?. Do you take copper too?.
Sorry for all the questions but you seem to know about this. Thanks.
