Zinc is an essential nutrient that plays a vital role in the body. It supports the activity of over 300 enzymes involved in metabolism, digestion, nerve function, and other processes. Zinc is also important for the development and function of immune cells, skin health, DNA synthesis, and protein production.
Symptoms of zinc deficiency can include diarrhoea, compromised immunity, thinning hair, decreased appetite, mood disturbances, dry skin, fertility issues, impaired growth and development, delayed sexual maturity, impaired wound healing, and behavioural conditions.
Certain groups, including those with gastrointestinal conditions, vegetarians and vegans, pregnant and breastfeeding women, individuals with sickle cell anaemia, and those with kidney conditions, might need to monitor their zinc intake closely.
Warning! This product may not be right for you. Always consult your pharmacist and read the label, including warnings and instructions before use. Our pharmacists are available for consultations about compounded medicines.
