Extended Info
Recommended to those who find zinc in tablet or capsule form difficult to swallow. Zinc helps tissue renewal, is involved in some of tne enzymatic reactions necessary for skin's normal oil gland function, and influences the maintenance of the health of body systems such as the nervous, immune and reproductive systems, as well the senses of taste and smell. Zinc is an integral part of insulin, the hormone used for the treatment of diabetes, and is essential for all protein synthesis in the body. Any extra physical or mental demands made on the body can increase the need for zinc or cause our bodies to lose extra zinc, whereas phytate and fibre rich foods inhibit the absorption of zinc from food.
