What is Zinc?

Zinc is an essential trace element that the body cannot produce itself, which is why it must be supplied through food or in the form of dietary supplements. Zinc is involved in a variety of important processes in the body and is an essential component of over 300 vital enzymes and is involved in the production of numerous hormones. In addition, it plays a crucial role in protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism and healthy immune system function. We use the relatively new and unknown zinc bisglycinate, in which the zinc atom is bonded to two amino acid molecules. This zinc dosage form is not attacked by stomach acid and also survives attacks by enzymes in the duodenum without damage. In the small intestine, zinc bisglycinate is absorbed into the bloodstream in a very high percentage through special transport systems. Compared to zinc gluconate and Zinc citrate, which is known for its good bioavailability, zinc bisglycinate can shine with over 40% higher bioavailability.

What are the consequences of zinc deficiency and why is it so widespread?

Our daily diet often does not provide enough zinc to cover our daily needs for this vital trace element, which is due, among other things, to the high proportion of highly processed foods, whose zinc content is usually quite low. The consequences of a zinc deficiency can be diverse and include symptoms such as reduced physical performance, difficulty concentrating, lack of motivation, impaired function of the immune system and the resulting increased susceptibility to infectious diseases, reduced hormone levels, hair loss, delayed wound healing, reduced fertility, impure skin, diarrhea and more include impaired regenerative ability. Since zinc is required for numerous metabolic processes, a zinc deficiency can also result in a reduction in metabolic rate, which can result in weight gain or problems losing body fat. Since the body cannot store zinc in significant amounts, a short-term intake of zinc that is too low is enough to cause a zinc deficiency.

What health benefits does zinc have?

Adequate zinc intake can effectively prevent all of the negative effects of a zinc deficiency on health and well-being described in the previous section. In addition, it has antiviral effects and can improve the function of the immune system and thereby reduce susceptibility to infectious diseases, as it is crucial for the activity of natural killer cells of the immune system. Since zinc is part of a variety of enzymes that are responsible for breaking down pollutants, heavy metals and toxins in the body, this important trace element can support the body's natural detoxification processes.

Zinc is also an essential component of the body's own antioxidants and increased zinc intake can therefore support the neutralization of free radicals in the body. Excessive levels of free radicals can damage the body's cells and DNA and have been linked to the development of a variety of diseases ranging from cancer to cardiovascular disease. Because free radicals accelerate the body's aging process, increased levels of the body's own antioxidants are viewed by many scientists as a natural anti-aging therapy. There is even evidence that zinc may have a mood-enhancing effect and may alleviate certain types of depression, as it is part of an enzyme in the brain that is important for the synthesis of serotonin.
