I use a zinc supplement - zinc picolinate before bed. Its 22mg was looking for 25mg, but this is the closest i could get.

I was reccommended by a decent fitness pro that anything over 25mg then you need to start looking at you copper levels too since high zinc levels depletes copper absorption.

I cant say whether this causes you bleeding nipples but copper deficiency is known to cause skin problems.

How much zinc are you taking??
