Zinc has many effects and functions without which organism falls into serious troubles. Its lack could delay physical and mental maturing in children, but also in adulthood one cant miss zinc as for example its necessary for proper functioning of enzyme[1] systems. Further, its deficiency causes slow mending of wounds, worsen of memory and malfunctions in senses - especially sight and smell.
Except of dietary supplements it looks like sea fruits are good source of zinc. Zinc is expelled from body by high intake of liquids, drinking of alcohol or intake of diuretic[2]. Thats why one need to think about supplementing it. The other sources of zinc are walnuts and green leaf vegetables when they are grown in good soil. Nevertheless, animal sources are multiply richer, so vegetarians should think of this factor.
About increased intake of zinc one should think also in period of increased morbidity as some defense cells of organism cant efficiently fight with disease while lacking zinc.
"Deficiency of zinc causes loss of fertility, low resistance to infections, slow mending of wounds and skin defects similar to psoriasis.
