I just got my bloodwork results back and my family Dr said my zinc and copper levels are high?  So they told me to cut my supplement in half, but I am not taking a zinc and copper supplement other than my multi vitamin.  Does anyone know what  are symptoms/effects of high zinc/ copper levels and is it dangerous if it gets above a certain level?    Thanks
My zinc level is 138   range is 60-130
My copper level is 187  range is 70-175

Did you ask your doctor what the symptoms/effects are of high levels?  Maybe you can call their office tomorrow and ask.  You could do a google search, but your doc is probably the best source of info.
