Essential Insights on Zinc Supplementation
Quick Overview
Zinc often comes to mind when battling a cold. While it doesn’t cure colds, zinc can enhance your immune response, helping reduce the duration and severity.Key Sources of Zinc
Oysters top the list for zinc content. However, meats like liver, chicken, and turkey also provide ample zinc, making deficiencies rare. Dairy products contribute significantly as well. Vegetarians, who avoid meat, are at a higher risk for zinc deficiency. Signs of low zinc levels in adults include hair and skin changes and loss of appetite. Others at risk include those receiving nutrition via feeding tubes, individuals with alcohol use disorder, and women on birth control pills.Recommended Intake
The daily recommended intake of zinc is 15 milligrams, typically covered by most multivitamins. If your diet lacks zinc-rich foods or you have an absorption issue, a multivitamin can help meet your daily needs. Zinc isn’t stored in the body, so consistent daily intake is crucial.Zinc and Fertility
Zinc can play a role in fertility. In men, 50 milligrams of zinc may boost semen volume, benefiting those with low sperm counts. For women, zinc can improve hormone levels, enhancing conception chances. However, consult a healthcare professional before beginning any high-dose zinc regimen. Excessive zinc can interfere with copper absorption, essential for immunity, and reduce good cholesterol levels.Final Thoughts
