Hey guys whats up

I got a question on just how much zinc is safe to take in. I have heard anything around 100 mgs a day is bad and can lead to prostate cancer. I have surfed the web a bit and found different answers on almost every page.

My current multi gives me 50mg of zinc a day...and if I also take the ZMA, which contains 20 mg zinc, this brings me to 70 mg of zinc each day. Also..this is not even counting the zinc I get from my natural food sources, which I am pretty sure I get a decent amount from.

So what do you guys think? How much zinc is 2 much?
