What is Zinc?

Zinc is an essential trace mineral that plays a fundamental role in human biology. It is the second most abundant trace mineral in the body after iron and is required for the activity of over 300 enzymes involved in virtually every aspect of metabolism. Zinc is present in every cell, where it supports protein synthesis, DNA synthesis, cell division, and immune function. The body cannot store zinc in significant amounts, making regular dietary intake necessary.

Zinc's biological reach is exceptionally broad. It supports the structure and function of cell membranes, helps maintain the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, and is required for the normal development and function of immune cells including neutrophils, natural killer cells, and T-lymphocytes. Zinc also plays a central role in DNA transcription, enabling the activity of thousands of zinc-finger proteins that regulate gene expression.

EFSA-approved health benefits

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has confirmed that zinc:

  • contributes to normal DNA synthesis
  • contributes to normal acid-base metabolism
  • contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism
  • contributes to normal cognitive function
  • contributes to normal fertility and reproduction
  • contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism
  • contributes to normal metabolism of fatty acids

  • contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood

Why we use Zinc in Nutri-Leaf formulas

Nutri-Leaf uses zinc gluconate, a well-absorbed form of zinc that provides reliable bioavailability. Our Immune Complex delivers 10mg of zinc per capsule (100% NRV) alongside selenium, vitamin C from rose hip, echinacea, and ginger for a comprehensive approach to immune and antioxidant support. Our Skin Hair & Nails formula also includes zinc, balanced with copper (1:10 ratio) to maintain healthy mineral status.

Products containing Zinc

The Nutri-Leaf products that feature zinc are Immune Complex (10mg zinc for daily immune support and antioxidant protection) and Skin Hair & Nails, where zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal hair, skin, and nails.
