What is it?
Zinc 30mg 100 Capsules Solgar - Solgar Ingredients: Zinc (Zinc Citrate) – 30mg Citrate is one of the most valuable and biologically active forms among mineral chelates. The body absorbs only the citrated form of trace elements when stomach acid is reduced. Consequently, zinc citrate is absorbed instantly and completely by the body. Zinc is a crucial trace element for the body's growth and development. It plays a significant role in cell division, building, repair, and protection. Zinc is a potent antioxidant. It is a cofactor for up to 300 enzymes. Zinc is not synthesized in the body, making it important to supplement. Zinc participates in the synthesis of DNA, RNA, proteins, and hemoglobin, as well as in the metabolism of carbohydrates and bone tissue (it is a necessary co-factor for bone cell regeneration). Zinc aids in the reabsorption of electrolytes and water, thus protecting the body from diarrhea. Zinc deficiency leads to reduced physical and mental capacity, memory impairment, asthenia, and depression. Immunology: Zinc participates in the formation and function of the immune system. It is essential for developing and maintaining the body's resistance to infectious diseases. Dermatology: Zinc participates in collagen synthesis and ensures the repair and health of the skin, hair, nails, and bone tissue structure. It plays a significant role in skin cell hydration and regeneration, promoting wound healing. Zinc deficiency manifests as hair loss, brittle nails, breakdown of skin structure, and delayed wound healing. Gynecology, Andrology-Urology: Zinc participates in the development of the reproductive system. It is an important component for the metabolism of Vitamin E, which is a precursor to sex hormones. Zinc is an essential trace element for sperm production and maturation, and for the normal functioning of the prostate gland. It participates in the synthesis of nuclear receptors for androgenic hormones, testosterone, and prostaglandins. Zinc deficiency is often linked to male infertility. In women, zinc's role is determined by its involvement in ovulation, promoting fertilization. During pregnancy, it ensures the complete development of the fetus. Zinc participates in the synthesis of estrogens, progesterone, and the release of gonadotropins. Deficiency of this mineral during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of spontaneous abortion, premature birth, and teratogenicity. Ophthalmology: Zinc is found in the highest concentration in the eye and plays a significant role in the development of visual function. Its deficiency causes vision-related disorders, and in severe deficiency, changes in the retina and night blindness develop. Endocrinology: Zinc ensures the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. It participates in the synthesis of insulin and growth hormone. Deficiency causes delayed growth. Zinc is part of alcohol dehydrogenases and ensures the breakdown of alcohol in the body. Prolonged intake of zinc may lead to copper deficiency. Factors causing zinc deficiency include: · Insufficient supply in the body (diet, starvation) · Reduced absorption by the body (in case of intestinal diseases) · Excessive excretion from the body (during alcoholism, prolonged diarrhea, use of laxatives and other medications). The need for zinc increases during: pregnancy, lactation, for athletes and vegetarians.
