What is Zinc?
Zinc is a mineral that acts as a cofactor for more than eighty enzymes. Among other things, zinc is involved in normal cell division, DNA and protein synthesis, normal acid–base metabolism, and the normal metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and vitamin A.
Zinc is mainly found in meat, fish (herring), whole-meal bread, legumes and rice.
What does Zinc do?
Zinc contributes to normal fertility and sperm quality, is good for the skeleton and for eyesight so you can keep seeing sharply. It helps maintain normal skin, hair and nails. It has a positive influence on the immune system, keeps the mind clear and is good for memory. In addition, it helps protect cells against oxidative damage.
Never use more than 15 mg of zinc per day for extended periods without a doctor’s prescription, because it can reduce copper absorption. If you use a higher dosage of zinc, it is often advisable to take a copper supplement alongside it.
For most people, using a good multivitamin is much better than taking only zinc or any single mineral.
Zinc is present in all body tissues and is concentrated particularly in the cell nucleus. The mineral supports the skin’s regenerative capacity and the immune system. As an antioxidant, zinc plays an important role in the body. Stressful situations increase the need for zinc. It may play a role in reduced appetite and in smell and taste perception. Furthermore, it is important for the storage and release of insulin and is involved in protein, carbohydrate, fat and nucleic acid metabolism. Zinc and copper are antagonists and are therefore preferably taken together.
