Zinc is a mineral that the body needs to function properly. It enables cells to use enzymes that trigger the synthesis of collagen and other proteins and also increases immunity and resistance to various damaging factors (including alcohol).
Studies show that a zinc-poor diet lowers testosterone levels in men by 75% within 20 weeks. Scientists remind us that zinc is part of more than 400 enzymes, and its lack in the diet can disrupt metabolism in a complex way.
