The 7 Warning Signs of a Zinc Deficiency

Zinc is the 3rd most important nutrient and is involved with over 200 different enzymes.

Zinc allows you to make glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant. It’s highly concentrated in the prostate and helps make sperm and testosterone. Zinc is in the part of the pancreas that produces insulin, and it is also in the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for memory. Zinc is vital for wound healing, decreasing gastritis, generating collagen, and hair regrowth.

Here are 7 common zinc deficiency symptoms:

1. Night blindness

2. Low testosterone, estrogen, or progesterone

3. Diarrhea

4. Acne

5. Alopecia

6. Cataracts

7. Thymus gland shrinkage

The thymus is the most important immune gland. It makes the T cells that control and coordinate every aspect of your immune system. T cells help to kill infection and cancer and help prevent autoimmune diseases.

Professor Greg Fahy has conducted fascinating research about the anti-aging possibilities that can occur when you restore the thymus gland. If you can regenerate the thymus gland, you may be able to increase your lifespan by decreasing the risk of cancer and infections.

In a rat study, a thymus from a younger rat was transplanted into an older rat. The rat experienced an increased lifespan and regrowth of the thymus. Rats given zinc had fully recovered thymus function and improved immune function.

Zinc deficiency can be caused by the following:

• Aging

• Gut issues

• Vegan/vegetarian diets

• Alcohol

• Sugar

• Chronic stress

• Medications

When you take zinc, you should also take copper. Thymus extract can also be beneficial to the thymus gland.
