Description of Scitec Nutrition Zinc 25 mg

Zinc is the second most abundant trace element in the human body after iron.   The average 70 kg adult body contains 2-3g of zinc.
Dietary sources include oysters, stone fruits and beans. However, since most plant-based zinc-containing foods contain phytates that inhibit the bioavailability of zinc, the body does not utilize zinc from plant-based foods as well as from animal foods. This is why dietitians who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet are recommended to increase the RDA by 50%.
The percentage distribution of the 2-3 grams of zinc is not even, about 60% is found in skeletal muscle and 30% in bone.
One in ten proteins in the human body has a zinc-binding site and cofactors are found in every single enzyme class. Its role is as a catalyst, structural process or signalling molecule. 
It is a cofactor for nearly 300 enzymes involved in the breakdown of alcohol, alkaline phosphatase, angiotensin convertase, RNA and DNA polymerase, among others. Transcription factors that activate genes also require zinc.
  • 25 mg zinc per day;
  • Zinc gluconate and zinc bisglycinate.
