Recovering after pylori (8 months), and decided to try zinc-carnosie. I take it with meals or right after meals, and right after the first dose I noticed it significantly slowed down my digestion (burping, gas, fullness, low appetite). I've already had symptoms of bad motility/low acid (mostly burping, burning 3-4 h after a meal, indigestion; the same symptoms I had during the infection, minus poor appetite).

My question is, is taking zinc still beneficial and it's worth it to power through the symptoms for a month (until I'm done with the current bottle), or is it causing too much irritation and is counterproductive to healing?

Any other advice on my situation is appreciated as well.
