Description:
Zinc is essential to good health and is found in every cell of the body. It is involved in many enzymatic reactions, and plays an important role in the body’s antioxidant defences against free radicals. Zinc is also important for healthy skin and is involved in normal oil gland function and the repair of wounds and other skin problems.
Consequently zinc supplements may provide extra support for acne-prone skin, slow-healing wounds, and minor skin problems such as dermatitis. Adequate intake of zinc is also important for immunity, which may be compromised if zinc levels are low. Zinc helps maintain the senses of vision, taste and smell, and low levels may contribute to problems with taste or smell. Zinc plays an essential role in the male reproductive tract, where it is involved in the production of healthy sperm.
In Blackmores Bio Zinc, zinc is accompanied by vitamin A (which is also required for healthy immune function and the maintenance of healthy skin), manganese (which works with zinc to support the body’s antioxidant defences), and magnesium and vitamin B6 (both of which are involved in zinc metabolism).
