To offset this problem, your multimineral supplement should have at least fifteen times more zinc than copper, unless your doctor has diagnosed you as copper deficient. If you take more than 25 mg of zinc daily, add 500 meg to 1 mg of copper. The next step targets more specific health concerns, and we recommend that you take certain nutrients in amounts well above those found in almost all multivitamin and multimineral supplements.
