<<She was still way low on the
weight, until I read (here on LactNet) about zinc supplements improving
appetite. After just one bottle of chewable zinc tabs, her weight caught up
to where now, at 12 she is just 5 pounds from being even on both
height/weight lines (although still only between 5th and 10th percentile).>>

I don't remember this information about zinc (perhaps I was nomail at that
time?), and am not finding it in the archives with a quick search.   If
anybody can point me to references or can explain what this is about I would
be grateful.
