In this episode of The Gorgeous Plate, Dr. Aleta and Chef Tiffani dive into the mighty mineral zinc - an unsung hero in skincare, nutrition, and wellness. We break down how zinc works both inside and out.  

You’ll learn:

 • The difference between zinc in food, supplements, and topical sunscreens

 •What to eat to naturally boost zinc intake (hello, oysters and chickpeas!) 

 • How zinc oxide works as a physical sunscreen

 • Who might need a zinc supplement (and signs you could be low)

 • How this one mineral helps with inflammation, hyperpigmentation/dark spots, and much more 

Whether you’re trying to eat better, build a stronger skincare routine, or just curious about the science behind your SPF—this episode will help you get skin-smart from the inside out.
