Zinc Supplementation Acne Meta-AnalysisDuring pregnancy, zinc supplementation is frequently recommended to enhance maternal immunity, reduce the risk of infections, and support overall gestational health ().3Mugundan Uma Maheshwari (2026)Could excessive zinc supplementation during pregnancy cause menkes disease? A hypothesis worth investigating
Zinc Supplementation Acne Meta-AnalysisHowever, direct clinical evidence remains limited, with only a small number of studies in pregnant women demonstrating an inverse relationship between zinc supplementation and copper status and no large-scale epidemiological data linking this interaction to neonatal outcomes.3Mugundan Uma Maheshwari (2026)Could excessive zinc supplementation during pregnancy cause menkes disease? A hypothesis worth investigating
Zinc Supplementation Acne Meta-AnalysisAs a result, excessive zinc consumption can indirectly cause copper deficiency even if copper intake remains adequate, which is depicted in.3Mugundan Uma Maheshwari (2026)Could excessive zinc supplementation during pregnancy cause menkes disease?

Zinc Supplementation Acne Meta-Analysis1 2 Menkes disease (MD) is a rare X-linked recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the ATP7A gene, which encodes a critical copper-transporting ATPase involved in cellular copper efflux and distribution.3Mugundan Uma Maheshwari (2026)Could excessive zinc supplementation during pregnancy cause menkes disease? A hypothesis worth investigating
