Zinc is essential nutrient for all enzymatic reactions in

Zinc may help prevent acne and regulate the activity of oil
glands. It is required for protein synthesis and collagen
formation, and promotes a healthy immune system and the healing
of wounds. Zinc also allows activity of taste and smell. It
protects the liver form chemical damage and is vital for bone
formation. It is a constituent of insulin
and many vital enzymes, including the antioxidant enzyme
superoxide dismutase (SOD). It also helps to fight and prevent
the formation of free radicals in other ways. Organic zinc
has been found to have antioxidant activity comparable to
that of vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta carotene; and are effective
in relieving symptoms of the common cold and reducing the
duration of colds. Sufficient intake and absorption of zinc are needed to maintain
the proper comentration of vitamin E in the blood. In addition,
zinc increases the absorption of vitamin A. For optimum health,
a proper balance between copper and zinc levels should be
maintained. A deficiency of zinc may result in
the loss of senses of taste and smell. It can also cause fingernails
to become thin, peel, and develop white spots. Other possible
signs of zinc deficiency include acne, delayed sexual maturation,
fatigue, growth impairment, hair loss, high cholesterol levels,
impaired night vision, impotence, increased susceptibility
to infection, ingertility, memory impairment, a propensity
to diabetes, prostate trouble, recurrent colds and flu, skin
lesions, and slow wound healing. Comments
Zinc levels may be lowered by diarrhea, kidney disease, cirrhosis
of liver, diabetes, or the consumption of fiber, which causes
zinc to be excreted through the intestinal tract. A significant
amount of zinc is lost through perspiration. The consumption
of hard water also can upset zinc levels. Compounds called
phytates that are found in grains and legumes bind with zinc
so that it cannot be absorbed. If you take both zinc and iron
supplements, take them at different times. If these two minerals
are taken together, they interfere with other's activity. Cautions
Do not take a total of more than 100 milligrams of "elemental"
zinc daily. While daily doses under 100 milligrams enhance
the immune response, doses of more that 100 milligrams can
depress the immune system.
