Zinc is a constituent of over two dozen enzymes involved in digestion and metabolism, including carbonic anhydrase, which is vital to tissue respiration. Zinc is essential for the healthy storage and metabolism of carbohydrates, as well as the absorption and function of B vitamins. It plays an important role in supporting the body's defense system, promoting healthy neutrophil, natural killer cell and T-lymphocyte function. Zinc also plays a fundamental role in collagen formation and healthy tissue development. This mineral contributes to healthy prostatic function and is essential for normal fetal development and reproductive health.
