The human body contains approximately 2.5 grams of zinc. Since this is a relatively small amount, zinc is classified as a trace element. However, among trace elements, it is the second most abundant in the body after iron.

Nevertheless, the body can neither produce this mineral itself nor store excess amounts. At the same time, zinc is continuously eliminated naturally through perspiration and digestion. Since the body cannot survive without zinc, it must be supplied regularly as an essential micronutrient.

Zinc is required by all body cells and more than 300 enzymes and plays a major role in regulating all important metabolic processes.

It is a component of hormones such as insulin, thyroid hormones and sex hormones, as well as antibodies and so-called killer cells. It is also involved in the formation of white blood cells.

In addition, zinc helps stabilise DNA, contributes to the formation of genes and supports the transmission of nerve signals.

The mineral also plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats and supports the absorption of vitamin A.

Growth processes, as well as the activation of immune defence cells, depend on this trace element. Zinc also plays an important role in the perception of taste and smell.

No other substance can replace zinc or perform its functions.
