Zinc is involved in hundreds of processes in the body from protein synthesis, to DNA repair, to immune system function. To carry out these functions at optimal capacity, it is important that we are not lacking in zinc. This is especially important since the body has no zinc storage mechanisms.

In this episode of Your Nutrition Prescription, I will cover zinc needs in the human body, primary sources of zinc, and recommendations for who might want to use a zinc supplement. You don’t want to miss this valuable information about one of our body’s most important minerals.
