It heals the gut & skin, reduces inflammation & fatigue, and massively boosts sexual health.

That's just scratching the surface.

The benefits of ZINC are nearly endless:

Zinc rapidly repairs the gut.

The gut can be broken down by bacterial toxins (LPS) or high doses of antibiotics, but zinc gluconate:

• Alleviates digestive symptoms
• Prevents "leaky gut"
• Decreases pathogenic bacteria

possibly the #1 nutrient for digestion.

Zinc boosts metabolism.

Zinc is necessary for thyroid hormone:

• Production
• Conversion
• Signaling

Periods of zinc deficiency (MP2 here) drastically lower metabolism.

Zinc carnosine prevents "leaky gut."

37.5 mg, 2x daily, completely halted the permeability in the intestine.

This permeability drives:

• Various gut symptoms
• Food intolerance
• Systemic inflammation

Zinc Carnosine powerfully reduces gut inflammation.

People with ulcerative colitis (inflammatory bowel disease) taking it:

‣ Dramatically reduced disease progression
‣ Reduced digestive symptoms by nearly 40%

Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, repairs gut lining.

Zinc is the ultimate nutrient for SKIN.

Zinc has shown promise for:

⬩Warts
⬩Acne
⬩Rosacea
⬩Vitiligo
⬩Psoriasis
⬩Eczema
⬩Sunburn
⬩Wrinkles
⬩Dandruff

It supports nearly every process in regenerating new skin.

Zinc is a critical factor in hair loss.

Zinc:

• Levels very low in alopecia
• A vital cofactor for growth and differentiation of keratinocytes (hair producing cells)
• Oral / topical supplementation can have benefit for growth

Zinc reverses fatigue.

Zinc at just 30 mg per day reduced fatigue by ~20% within 3 months.

Zinc:

‣ Enhances mitochondrial energy production
‣ Has anti-inflammatory function
‣ Required in hormonal signaling + production

and levels declines in aging.

Zinc low, copper high in chronic fatigue / pain.

Excess copper can:

• Increase estrogen
• Drive inflammation
• Cause oxidative stress

contributing to fibromyalgia - zinc opposes these functions.

Zinc is an anti-aging nutrient.

The Copper / Zinc ratio is elevated in:

‣ Age
‣ Cancer
‣ Inflammation
‣ Insulin resistance
‣ Autism

Zinc levels decline as we age, less zinc relative to copper predicts death.

Zinc reduces depression by half.

Just 25 mg of zinc daily was shown to have this effect.

Zinc:

⬩Lowers glutamate
⬩Reduce intracellular calcium
⬩Antagonizes the NMDA system
⬩Increases BDNF

In the brain, all vital for neurological function.

Zinc dramatically lowers cortisol.

A 50 mg zinc dose suppressed the stress hormone by around 70% here.

While the HPA axis, which produces cortisol, depletes zinc, adding it back in markedly lowers this stress system.

Zinc levels are low in anxiety.

Stress, the principle driver of anxiety, is one factor that depletes zinc status.

Supplementation has shown benefits as well.

Zinc for a good night's sleep.

Consuming 40g oysters (B):

‣ Increased sleep efficiency
‣ Decreased time to fall asleep

Compared to eating low zinc scallops.

Zinc's potent anti-stress effects on display once again.

Zinc is a Godsend for male sexual health.

Low T men given zinc for under 2 months:

‣ More than DOUBLED sperm count
‣ Increased testosterone by over 50%
‣ Increased DHT by over 30%

9/22 men got their wives pregnant, when none could for 5 years prior.

Zinc lowers estrogen.

Excess estrogen is a serious issue, even for women.

Production of estrogen from androgens increases in:

‣ Aging
‣ Inflammation
‣ Fat accumulation

Zinc deficiency compounds this, further increasing the conversion of androgens to estrogens.

Zinc supercharges libido, sexual performance.

Zinc:

‣ Raises testosterone / Free T / DHT
‣ Enhances libido (in men & women)
‣ Improves erectile function
‣ Enhances sperm quality, abundance
‣ Involved in ALL steroid hormone signaling

no mineral more important for this.

Zinc shortens common cold duration by 30-40%.

Zinc lozenges have been repeatedly shown to be effective for dealing with this, by:

✪ Reducing inflammation
✪ Stopping viral replication
✪ Having direct antimicrobial effects

Zinc + Vitamin C powerfully reduce heavy metals.

‣ Both prevent absorption of lead, cadmium, etc
‣ Zinc directly promotes their excretion by producing metallothionein
‣ Both critical for antioxidant protection against them

Some of our best protection.

Zinc deficiency is a HUGE problem.

Around 17% of people globally are deficient.

Plus, our bodies lose it during:

• Stress
• Aging
• Inflammation
• Higher fiber intakes
• Exercise

yet we are SO dependent on it for nearly every function.
