Within the diet, Zinc is generally found in protein sources; red meat, poultry (darker meat areas), eggs and seafood. Vegetarians will take Zinc from eggs, cheese, beans and nuts, though Zinc is not as easily absorbed though non-animal sources.
Zinc may help maintain musculoskeletal health, and has a role in skincare and the digestive system. Not surprisingly, Zinc is becoming one of the most popular mineral supplements available.
