Over the last year or so there’s been much talk about the benefits of taking zinc supplements to provide immune support in the context of covid.  But zinc is crucial every day as it plays an important role in so many functions in the body.

Your body needs zinc every day in just the right amount, because too much can be as harmful as too little.  Your body has no way to store zinc, so it depends on a regular daily supply through your diet.

Zinc is important for a number of life-sustaining functions, including:

  • Strong immunity –helps to prevent colds and flu
  • Maintains your mood and mental clarity
  • Promotes restorative sleep
  • Senses of taste and smell
  • Prostate and intestinal health
  • Important component of the enzymes involved in tissue remodeling
