Zinc is a vital mineral component of every cell in a mammal body, and is required for over 200 enzymatic reactions. It is essential for normal skin, vision, smell, taste, reproduction, brain development, protein synthesis and wound healing. Furthermore, it is an important factor in a functioning immune system, as it is involved in the activation of immune system enhancing “T” cells. 
Zinc levels in the body may be lowered for many reasons including the following:

• occasional diarrhea;
• fiber consumption, which causes zinc excretion through the intestinal tract;
• perspiration;
• high calcium and iron consumption;
• copper ingestion.
