In the human organism many biochemical processes are controlled by zinc, for this reason the trace element is vital. Normally, the body should contain about two to four grams of zinc. However, since a storage of zinc is only possible for a short time and the human organism cannot produce the trace element itself, it should be supplied daily through food.

Men should take in about 10 milligrams of zinc daily. Women, on the other hand, need only 7 milligrams of the trace element. Factors such as age, weight and size should always be taken into account.
