How much zinc is too much?

How much zinc do you think I draw from food each day?

  • I've started taking zinc supplements (am going to rather) I just bought the vitamins today. They're 20mg, and my one a day mens vitamins have 15mg, and I'm trying to get 75mg a day. *Do the math 3*20=60+15=75* so common sense says take 3 solid zinc vitamins and a one a day vitamin and there's my 75. Problem is, after 75 it gets to be unhealthy. And I'm wondering how much zinc i draw from food each day. Here's how my diet works: I'm a vegetarian, no meat at all. I usually eat home food. I eat alot of hemp seed. I eat alot of fruit and I try to get a serving of almonds a day how much zinc do you think I get? 20mg? 10mg? I'm just looking for an estimate. Thanks
