I have never heard that but I have heard about powerlifters using high doses of zinc to aid strength increases for short periods. It is not something that you can do long term but it could be useful to help break a plateau or perform better in a competition. I can't quit remember the dosages. I think it was around 100 or 150mg a day for a couple of weeks. You might want to check the powerlifting board. Later, | ||

from what I've read, zinc increases your natural test levels, but not very much ------------------ |
