These products are used to treat symptoms of zinc deficiency: osteoporosis, hypogonadism, low testosterone levels, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, atrophy of the thymus, low white blood cell counts, and lowered immunity. In Nieper’s opinion, zinc orotate and zinc aspartate work better than other zinc salts.
- Zinc deficiency is associated with age-related osteoporosis
- Conversely, zinc supplements can speed the healing of fractures
- Zinc plays a vital role in immune function where it is associated with atrophy of the thymus, reduction in white blood cell counts, and increased susceptibility to infection
- Zinc also appears to be important for the activity of growth hormone (GH) since GH loses effectiveness under conditions of zinc deficiency.
- As is well known, one of the major roles for zinc is its antioxidant activity.
- Increasing zinc intake may protect against conditions associated with zinc deficiency, such as diabetes. Zinc deficiency is known to be associated with an increased prevalence of coronary artery disease as well as diabetes, and with several associated risk factors including hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance (syndrome X).
The orthodox way of treating diabetes is the attempt to normalize the blood sugar level by ingestion of certain medications that are supposed to lower the blood sugar level, or by injection of insulin. In addition, an appropriate diet is prescribed. Rolled oat flakes are particularly favorable. As a rule, this exhausts what orthodox medicine has to offer diabetics.
It is known that diabetic patients require larger quantities of zinc for several reasons. They require magnesium carrier compounds and selenium, because the larger and especially the smaller arterial blood vessels can be severely damaged by diabetes, even if a “normal” glucose level is maintained. Furthermore, the patient requires a substance, which is called GTF (glucose tolerance factor) by the California biochemist, Schrauzer, because, similarly to oats, it normalizes the glucose level due to more thorough sugar burning, and because it is necessary to prevent, the damage mentioned to blood vessels and nerves. GTF is a chromium compound.
In view of the association of zinc deficiency with diabetes, it’s not surprising to learn that zinc orotate and zinc aspartate stabilize blood glucose and reduce the need for insulin in diabetics, according to Dr. Nieper. In cases of diabetes a combination of Zinc orotate / selenium / chromium orotate / magnesium orotate / and DL carnitine have proven to be effective.
In addition, these substances are effective against the diabetic’s impotence helping to maintain male reproductive function and even reversing hypogonadism enabling serum testosterone levels to rise.
Cartilage damage is expansive when the Zinc taste test indicates an especially large deficiency of zinc. Therapy with zinc carrier compounds, like zinc aspartate and zinc orotate are important. The well-known rheumatologist, Dr. Heinitz in Baden-Baden, reported that “morning stiffness” in joints of rheumatic patients decreased after taking zinc aspartate or zinc orotate.
TESTING FOR ZINC DEFICIENCY: This is really simple. Stop by my clinic and you can take a free no obligation Zinc Taste Test. In literally minutes you’ll have a good idea how deficient your zinc levels are. So far, approximately 90% of patients tested are positive for zinc deficiency. These people also have an acidic salivary and urinary pH which should be neutralized as this makes Zinc Orotate supplementation even more effective.
TREATMENT FOR ZINC: Many patients have a sensitivity or allergy to Zinc and thus no matter how much they take, in whatever form, the body looks at it as a foe instead of a friend. Cerebrospinal Kinesiology treatments install new software that after being installed by your body reprograms at the DNA at the cellular level and returns zinc metabolism functions to normal. Checking to see if you have a Zinc allergy or sensitivity is a very quick procedure and available at no cost or obligation to you.
These treatments are available by appointment and cost $55.
NUTRI-THERAPY RECIPE FOR HEALTH – General Application

- After a month add 2 tablets of Zinc Orotate to this cycle (4/day).
- At the beginning of the third month start taking 2 tablets of Magnesium Orotate again twice a day (4/day).
- After three months continue taking Membrane Integrity Complex and now use Solaray’s Multi-Mineral Asporatates.

Dr. Edwards,
This all sounds facinating. My entire family has tested for some degree of gluten/ dairy intolerance, and we also have varying degrees of c. pneumonaie, mycoplasma pneumoniae, HHV6, chronic Epstein barr ( by blood work for IGG and IGA antibodies) and by Metametrix stool DNA testing we have different types of chronic parasites- Blastocystis Hominus, Hpylori, Hystolitica Oemeba, and varying stages of candida overgrowth. My daughter with the very high IGG titers for M. pnuem and HHv6 has multiple food allergies, and sulfur methylation issues – no high sulfur foods or supplements are tolerated. None of us are autistic even though we seem to have the same clinical profile, but we have asthma, food and pollen allergies, hypothyroid (goiters and cysts), and some degree of fatigue. We have all tested by saliva to be in adrenal exhaustion. (Not a pretty picture and falls into the area of “too much information!”. ) We are doing multiple things at once to alleviate these things, and your allergy/ chronic infection clearings caught my attention. I have to admit, it sounds hard to believe, but we would be interested in trying this. We live in Texas, so this would have to be done here. Have you had patients that have shown that their specific infection loads have decreased by blood work, following your clearing treatment?
Your allergy treatment didn’t seem too complicated, so how complicated is the chronic infection clearings?
Thanks so much,
Deirdre Arthur
