Zinc is one of the most commonly depleted minerals and one of the least talked about.
It's essential for testosterone production, immune function, wound healing, protein synthesis, and over 300 enzymatic reactions in your body.
What depletes it fastest:
- Chronic stress
- Alcohol consumption
- High-grain diets that contain phytic acid which binds zinc and blocks absorption
- Prolonged endurance training
Best food sources:
- Oysters, by far the richest source available
- Grass-fed red meat
- Pumpkin seeds
- Shellfish
