Should we be concerned about supply with the Corona Virus implications?

I try to stay away from too much zinc supplementation due to concerns of copper depletion... How could I avoid that while taking ID?

You don't have to worry about copper depletion with our Microzinc. The sucrose ester that surrounds the zinc prevents that mechanism from happening in the mucous membranes in the GI tract. Zinc doesn't actually deplete copper. It disrupts the absorption of zinc in the mucous membranes. If you have an active carrier system like our Microzinc has, it does not have that effect, due to its absorption through a different pathway than ionic zinc.
