Zinc
Zinc is the 2nd most abundant essential trace mineral in the body. It is needed for more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. Zinc plays an important role in the immune system, which may explain why it is helpful in protecting against infections. Zinc also plays a role in the regulation of appetite, stress level, taste, and smell. It is essential for normal growth and development, and for most aspects of reproduction in both males and females. Zinc also has some antioxidant properties, which means that it helps protect cells in the body from free radicals.
