Lamberts Zinc 25 mg mineral daily intake 2120 tablets

The refining of cereals removes up to 90% of the zinc content available in these foods.

This fact, together with the tendency to eat less animal protein, is possibly one of the reasons why one in three British adults ingest less than the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI) for this mineral.

Zinc is an integral part of insulin, the hormone used in the treatment of diabetes, and is essential in the synthesis of all proteins in the body.

Any extraordinary physical or mental effort of the organism can increase zinc needs, or be the cause of extra zinc losses, while foods rich in phytates and fiber inhibit the absorption of zinc present in food.

One fifth of the zinc in the body is found in the skin.

Zinc 25mg should be used as a short-term supplement to correct deficiencies quickly.

For maintenance it is recommended to use Zinc of 15 mg.
