Put a bit of metal in your life or should I say put a bit of metal in your stomach. I am referring to Zinc, which is a very important mineral and yet is so very underestimated. This is probably due to the lack of public knowledge to its importance and many benefits to our sustained health. Good sources of zinc are red meat, chicken, fish and seafood. Nuts, eggs and yeast also have good levels of zinc. However these are not nearly enough to make up the recommended daily allowance. Zinc is a mineral that the body quickly absorbs and therefore the small levels that are acquired from food consumption are promptly used and are therefore mostly ...  Read the complete review

Being vegetarian, I am always vigilant about getting the right vitamins and minerals, and trying to achieve the correct balance in my diet. This has never been particularly problematic, as I eat fairly healthily (admittedly, I have one heck of a sweet tooth, though) and try to incorporate all the major food groups into my meals.

I have experimented with many vitamin supplements and herbal remedies over the years, but I usually prefer to get my vitamins naturally from food, where possible. Zinc is essential in the human ...  Read the complete review

I used to have problem skin during high school, but once I was in my 20's it really started to clear up, so I was annoyed to notice a lot more break outs, mostly occurring on my chin.

I got 180 tablets from Tesco for around £3.00 which I think is very reasonable, you can also get a combination of vitamin c and ...  Read the complete review

Zinc (Zn) Zinc is one of the most important trace elements in our diets, and is required by the body for more than 200 enzyme activities. It is the principal protector of the immune system, is well known for its role in growth and tissue repair, and is crucial for regulating our genetic information. Zinc is also vital for the structure and function of cell membranes. Apparently, according to many nutritionists, more people find it difficult to obtain enough Zinc in their diet than any other mineral. This is put down to modern farming and food processing methods. A Zinc deficiency can cause growth failure, infertility, impotency and, in some ...  Read the complete review
