I think so - especially when taking Zinc. I actually plan on taking some Zinc tomorrow to get out of an exam. Yay for Zinc!
Taking Zinc is reported to increase libido and testosterone levels, however there are some drawbacks if you take too much. The following are some guidelines on daily intake:The danger of taking zinc supplements can be summarized in two words: zinc overdose. A zinc dose of 40 milligrams is approved safe to use by FDA and a zinc dosage more than this can pose certain risks. In terms of zinc toxicity, there is no other way to put it: excess zinc is dangerous! This is primarily true because too much zinc will likely interfere with the metabolism and absorption of other essential minerals in your body, most especially iron, magnesium and copper. Zinc side effects can become potentially serious if you take doses from 150 to 450 mg a day. Taking this much can decrease your copper, iron and magnesium levels, reduce your body's immune function, and reduce your HDL (good cholesterol) level.
you can get poisoned by taking a poisonous amount of it.

The RDI for zinc is 11-15mg (for male adults). For example, 10 mg of zinc gluconate contains 1,43 elemental zinc. Therefore, one should ingest 77 mg of zinc gluconate daily in order to meet their daily requirements (provided that one does not obtain zinc from other food sources).
Yes, zinc is necessary in trace amounts for health. Taking zinc supplements with more than 40 milligrams may cause unwanted side effects. Taking zinc in large doses (gram amounts) can be fatal. Kelp also has an effect on you. It contains high amounts of iodine and, taken orally, may be unsafe.
