Biotrace Zinc 60ml

Zinc is an essential mineral meaning that we must get it from our foods in order to make enzymes and other molecules from it as part of our normal cellular function. Zinc is involved in over 80 pathways especially the production of insulin, white blood cells, collagen, hormones & sperm maturation as well as being used in the sensory organs, taste and vision. Studies have shown that the correct intake of Zinc reduces the frequency and severity of colds and flu, produce stronger and healthier skin hair and nails, and Zinc levels have been found to be low in several autoimmune diseases. Zinc is commonly taken as part of any programme related to supporting immune function and can often be taken successfully at the onset of a cold to prevent it from manifesting. Zinc also plays a role in sperm viability and hormone production making it an essential part of any treatment of fertility in both males and females. It is hard to pin down any one reason to take Zinc as it has so many important functions. It is also known that many whole foods contain Zinc naturally and that the consumption of refined carbohydrates induces a Zinc deficiency as the body draws on reserves to process the refined foods, therefore Zinc supplementation essential for anyone with chronic autoimmunity or who has had a high refined food intake in the past. Taking 15 mg daily is a safe way to supplement as this is the recommended daily intake, therefore with the addition of whole foods to the diet Zinc levels should be able to be restored within several months. Supplementing with Zinc once a year is recommended for those with immune problems in order to give the body what it needs to create healthy white blood cells.
