Zinc is an indispensable trace element found in every cell. Its presence in the human body is necessary to ensure the normal functioning of metabolic pathways.
The human body contains about 2-2.5 g of zinc, of which about 55% is found in muscle and 30% in bone, the rest in other tissues. The body does not make or store zinc, so a constant supply from external sources is desirable.
Zinc is an important component of enzyme systems that help in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It is important for hormones such as insulin, which regulates blood sugar levels, growth hormone and the male sex hormone testosterone. It may help in the treatment of infertility, is necessary for prostate function and for the growth of the genital organs. Significantly supports the body's natural defences. Stimulates wound and skin healing. It is beneficial in the treatment of acne, burns, eczema and helps maintain healthy hair, skin and nails.
